Singer turned politician, Bankole Wellington, aka Banky W, has stated that his political posters are being vandalised by the opposition.
He took to Instagram on Friday, to share a video of his posters being destroyed.
In the footage, a man was stripping roadside posters with a spray.
Banky alleged that it was done by the opposition party.
“Evidence of what our opponents are doing to oppress our efforts… But no matter how they try to tear us down, we get back up and keep going,” he wrote.
Banky W, while speaking in the footage, argued that his rivals can only try to bring him down but they will be unsuccessful.
“They can only try to bully and suppress us but it will not work. It is unfair, but it will be unsuccessful. Stand with us. Fight with us. Enough is enough.
“We have an election to win. Victory now loading,” he added.
However, Jubril Gawat, Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on new media, took to Twitter to counter Banky’s claim.
Sanwo-Olu’s Spokesperson argued that the actor wasn’t the only politician affected.
Buttressing his point, Gawat shared a video in which all the posters, irrespective of the political parties, were removed.
He, however, did not give reasons for the removal.
