the singer and actor, who is vying for a seat in Eti-Osa Federal Constituency.
 Nigerian singer cum politician, Banky W has said he's optimistic
the new Electoral Act 2022, would make rigging elections difficult.
Banky W whose real name is Olubankole Wellington is a House of
Representatives candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos
State.
According to Banky W at his campaign flag-off and Mega Fitness Walk
at Lekki Phase one, people now have assurance and confidence that their
votes would count, adding that gaining the people’s trust is very
important in winning as elections will be won or lost at polling units.
The singer who noted that he was very optimistic about winning the
election, said for once, the Electoral Act has become a game changer
because the manner in the election used to be rigged will really not be
effective anymore.
He continued saying now people have that assurance and confidence
that votes actually do count, adding that once you have your people
behind you, then you stand a better chance because this election will be
won and lost at each specific polling unit.
“That is why our focus is on engaging the communities, letting
them know where we stand, and working with them to get the seat at the
end of the day. I think we have a great chance of winning this
constituency because the people are excited about my candidacy. I ran in
2019 on an independent party platform and for me, 2019 was about
planting the seed but 2023 is about winning the seat and we will win the
seat with the support of our people,” he stated.
According to him, his team has a robust legislative agenda that has
been fine-tuned over the past few years, and the focus on areas like
education is very key and that they will try to bring technology into
all the various wards in Eti-Osa to give young people a chance to have
the kind of skill set that makes them relevant and able to become either
entrepreneurs or employees in this century.
He said “there are things we want to focus on with healthcare.
For instance, it will shock people that we don’t have a general hospital
with all the internally generated revenue from this constituency. So,
if somebody falls sick in Sangotedo, the person will have to go all the
way down to Lagos Island before he or she gets healthcare.
So, we will be fighting for things like healthcare, education
and gender equity. “I’m excited about the plans that we have for the
people because they are very good.”
The apex leader of the Banky W campaign council, Adeniyi Adams, who
noted that his candidate is saleable, popular and intelligent, said
chances are incredibly high because things are changing and with the new
electoral law, it is going to be extremely difficult to rig the people
out, and so they know that their votes will count and they are all out
to support him.
Adams said Banky W has empathy for the people and he has been
showing love to people of this constituency for more than a decade and
not because he wants to come out for the election.
So it’s easy for one to understand why the people are actually
yearning for him because it is no longer about him but about the change
people want, he said.
The Director General Admin and Finance for BankyW House of Reps
campaign organisation, Tolani Animashaun, also said given the current
situation of the country, candidates under the PDP have a chance of
winning across board.
Speaking about the crisis at the party, she said. “PDP’s house
is in order. Forget about what the media writes because they want to
have some sensation. What is put out is different from what is happening
inside.
The ones that you don’t hear about are those that you should be
scared of, so, you need to go and find out why you don’t hear about
them. We don’t have issues in our party.” |
