INEC Suspends Election In Yenagoa
Banky is running on the Peoples Democratic Party platform (PDP).
Banky W expressed satisfaction with voter turnout and the conduct of the electoral process in an interview with NAN on Saturday.
The 41-year-old, who is running for the seat for the second time after losing the first time, said his previous election experience prepared him.
He went on to say that structures had been put in place to ensure success.
“It’s about the work we’ve done on the campaign train; in community service over the years; the goodwill; and the grace of God brought by the community,” he explained.
“At the end of the day, for me, it is all about God’s grace and the will of the people, and I believe we have both of those. As a result, I am confident that I will prevail this time.
“We have learnt some lessons from the last election; so we started our queue control a lot earlier. Myself and a few friends got together and purchased canopies and chairs because Eti-Osa had the largest polling unit.”
