Bankole Wellington, better known Banky W, a Nigerian singer turned politician has broken his silence on his recent defeat in the general elections that took place on February 25.

Attah defeated his rivals Mr. Olubankole Wellington (Banky W) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who received 18,666 votes, and Mr. Babjide Obanikoro of the APC, who received 16,901 votes, by receiving 24,075 votes.
