Popular musician turned politician, Bankole Wellington, popularly known as Banky W, has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress of destroying PDP posters across Lagos state.
Banky W made this claim in a tweet on Friday, alleging that the ruling party removes his party’s campaign posters overnight.
“Evidence of what our opponents are doing to oppress us… but no matter how many times they tear us down, we get back up and we keep going. They should be ashamed. But it is well. Victory now loading,” Banky W said.
“We instructed our ppl to not deface public property. But when we put boards & banners, overnight their boys remove them. All we want is a level playing field. Drive around Eti-Osa and tell us what happened to all our boards? We had the most in the area. Now, you barely find any,” he added.
However, Jubril Gawat a Special Assistant to Lagos State government claims that all posters in the said area were removed irrespective of the political party they represent.
“CITIZENS REPORT: From the exact Location, ALL Posters were removed irrespective of Political Parties. Keep Lagos Clean,” Gawat wrote.
In June 2022, Banky W won the Peoples Democratic Party ticket to contest as the party bearer for the Eti Osa constituency ahead of the 2023 election.
