Banky W New Journey After Election Defeat

Musician-turned-politician Bankole Wellington, popularly known as Banky W, has returned to the classroom following his defeat in the 2023 Nigerian general election.

As the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate for the Eti-Osa Federal Constituency in Lagos State, Banky W lost to Thaddeus Attah of the Labour Party (LP).

Updating his followers on Instagram on Friday, Banky W shared that he is now pursuing a master’s degree in policy at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C.

“Gave up being a CEO to become a student because sometimes you have to let go of what is impressive to gain what is important. I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Policy at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. The journey of faith continues. Please wish me well,” he posted.

This news comes just two months after he underwent a fourth cancer surgery.
