  1. HE; Prince Out is a good man with a people oriented governance approach. He can't be everywhere at the same time, and so in most cases he relies on the fillers he gets from trusted allies. The 5km road is an Mkpani road: from the junction by Ikom - Clalabr highway to the southern outskirt of Mkpani. If it were Mkpani - Agoi Ibami road, it would have been 23km. Enough of this dwarfing of Agoi people by our Yakurr speaking neighbours. I hold an olive branch.
