The Nigerian rhythm and blues veteran explained that he would come out of retirement and release a currently unnamed album.
The veteran singer tweeted in his twitter handle @ BankyW.
“Okay. I’m going to do at least one more album, in 2020. Not sure if there are too many people who feel the same as you do, but thanks for this. I appreciate it.”
The twit came after a fan tweeted at Banky W that;
“Who else misses @Banky W the singer? I love @Banky W the actor, the politician, the activist but please sir still give us music.
‘’If you don’t want to do again, for goodness sake can you just make even if it’s one song a year, just one.” he said.
