In April 2021, Banky W had declared his intention to run for the house of representatives.
The ‘Ebute-Metta’ crooner said it has become imperative for young Nigerians to join the system in order to fix it.
This will be the second time the 41-year-old would be contesting for the same position.
In 2019, Banky W vied under the Modern Democratic Party (MDP) but lost to Babajide Obanikoro of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the polls.
