I decided to stay in Nigeria to make my community better - Banky W

Nigerian entertainer, and House of Representatives candidate, Olubankole Wellington, popularly called Banky W, has pledged to support the establishment of state police if elected.
The singer said his destiny is to stay in Nigeria and make his community and the country better.

He said "For me, it is about destiny and impact. I have lived outside of the country for a little over half of my life and I have had those opportunities and they are still there for me if I wanted to take them but I feel like my destiny is here. I feel like I have been given the success, the platform, the following and the relevance that I have because I am meant to use it for a greater good. I am meant to use it to impact my generation. I am meant to use it to empower the young people around me. I am meant to use it to make my community and my country better. So, if I run away because life is easier elsewhere, that will be running away from my problems and I am intent on impacting my generation and fulfilling my purpose, that is why I am here. Absolutely. I think that Nigeria is too big of a country to be policed effectively on federal basis. I think that there are so many issues that are going on in our communities now that I think states should have the ability to run their own police forces."
