Senator Eteng William, representing Central Cross River State in the 10th Nigerian Senate, joined the State Governor, H.E. Prince Bassey Otu, alongside former governors H.E. Donald Duke and H.E. Liyel Imoke, at the Transcorp Hilton in Abuja for the official unveiling of the 2025 Calabar Carnival theme.
A vibrant celebration of culture and creativity, the Calabar Carnival marks a milestone this year—20 years since its inaugural edition in 2005.
Two decades of dazzling performances, unforgettable memories, and a global showcase of Africa’s rich heritage have solidified this annual festival as a defining symbol of Cross River State.
As a premier tourist destination in West Saharan Africa, the carnival reflects Senator William’s unwavering commitment to promoting the state’s cultural identity and guiding his legislative governance.
