Dear Stalker,

In response to the cringe worthy, creepy video you made about my wife and I, I think there are some things you need to know. First of all, poverty will never be my portion in Jesus name. Also, it is a 2008 Range Rover Sport not a 1999. Amen and Lol. Oh, and additionally, it’s currently for sale to the highest bidder. I had decided last month that I’d sell it, and whatever I got for it, I’d hand over to the “Vocational School for the Blind” in Oshodi and the “Pink Oak Cancer Trust Fund”. My Aunt volunteers at the school, and she reminded me that they were still trying to raise some money to care for their students, so I came up with a plan. I told her that I’d give my followers the background history of my old car, and get all my celebrity friends who’d sat in it at some point or another to autograph it, and then put it up for an online auction. I figured that since I didn’t need the money from the sale to buy a new one, we could just auction it off and hopefully raise a decent enough amount of money to give back to those in need.





You see, I’ve never found it necessary to own more than one car. Mostly because I can only ever DRIVE one car at a time; and when I bought the car in 2011, I promised myself that I would never buy another car, until I owned the home I live in. To me, owning a nice car might help me LOOK like I was doing okay, but owning a nice home would help me KNOW. The way my mind is set up…what good is owning a Rolls Royce, if I’m still paying rent on the house I park it in?



Over the years, as my car went from being kind-of-trendy to being just plain old, people around would occasionally wonder out loud about when I would finally buy a nicer one; I’d just smile and say to myself “not until I own my house”. I eventually did buy an additional much smaller car (a Kia), but that was only because I wanted to use it on “Uber”, so my driver could earn extra bonus money for himself and us, in his free time. I wonder how shocked and horrified you would have been if you’d seen me driving that smaller car instead (which, by the way, I do drive, occasionally).



You might be happy to know that I’ve now FINALLY ordered a newer, nicer, personal car, and my wife has too. We paid for them a month ago, but we will probably never show them to you, because we don’t want you to stalk us again, but also because that’s not really any of your business – much like my old Range Rover wasn’t. The cars we are getting are relatively new this year, but the way my mind is set up, we will probably drive them for as long as possible, until we have stashed away enough money for our future kids’ complete University Education, and until we have secured a hell of a lot more real estate for them to inherit. I’m not sure how long that will take…I’m just grateful that my wife’s mind is set up a lot more like mine, than yours.



With that being said, dear stalker, since you’ve taken it upon yourself to help me advertise my old car, I just thought it’s only fair to let you know that it’s available for sale, and that you can be its next proud owner, should you decide to bid on it. You’d be bidding on a piece of Nigerian Pop Culture history, because the car will come complete with a portrait of my wife and I, and the car & portrait will be autographed by every celebrity friend that I can get to. Everyone… from Wizkid to Tiwa Savage, from 2Baba to Toke Makinwa… from Ebuka to Kemi Adetiba… everyone has been in that car, and I’m gonna try and get them to sign it. More importantly though, if you buy it, you’ll be helping me raise money for the “Vocational School For the Blind” and for the “Pink Oak Cancer Trust Fund”.



See, there’s a difference between you and I. You look down on people because of what YOU THINK they can or can’t afford. You clearly believe that a man’s worth should be measured by the car he chooses to drive… but I think differently. You would actually look down on the very same people that I’ve looked up to for years. Warren Buffet drives a cadillac he bought about 7 years ago. Mark Zukerberg drives an Acura valued at about $30k. Alice Walton (the world’s wealthiest woman) drives a Ford F150. Ikea’s founder, Ingvar Kamprad, drove a 1993 volvo for over 20 years, until someone convinced him that driving at 91 was too dangerous – oh, and he probably doesn’t know the way to the Gucci store, because he buys most of his clothes from the flea market. Google them. All of them drive “old” cars. But all of them are billionaires who’ve built up their fortune, while giving back to society, and building up the people around them.



I believe that true greatness and success shouldn’t just be measured by what you are able to get… but also by what you are able to give. While driving my very-old car the last few years, I’ve spent a lot of my time giving to the people around me, and giving back to society to the best of my ability. The fact that you’re able to spend time mocking and stalking me outside a grocery store, says a lot more about you than it does about me. I’m just out here minding my business, building my homes and my fortune, while also trying to build up as many people as possible. You should consider doing the same.

Sincerely,

~ B.W.

must you announce to the world what you want to do with the money

sthecy:
Na wa ooh..see explanation

You couldn’t wrap your brain around it right ?

Chai this guys reply has really touched me deeply. Moral lesson everything on earth is vanity. God bless you banky you are a true definition of a real man. Your maturity is superb

Banky W ? You have a big head and your wife cannot act,she is a terrible actress. Guess he would respond with another epistle too. He didnt need to respond to them at all.His epistle wont change their ignorance.

Banky W is entitled to his response but he should listen to Ebenezer Obey - The horse,The Man & His Son for wisdom on such issues.

verygudbadguy:
Classic man.
TBH, there is a clear difference between a well trained obodo Oyinbo boy and his counterpart in Naija. The Ilu Oyinbo boys seem to grounded in humility and prudence. They are never materialistic. They have seen it all so nothing freaks them. A typical Naija boy whether well trained or not wants to have everything. This is because we lacked so much whether from a rich or poor background. We lack good roads, social amenities. It's also part of the things we learnt from our thieving leaders. God help us.

God bless Banky W. True definition of a gentle man.

Classy my ass! I fact he’s got no class. Classic MEN wouldn’t have bothered replying an internet troll. He didn’t just reply but narrated his life story. Arrant nonsensez

The man talks f^cking too much.

Jodhar:
Why do I have a feeling that banky staged the whole thing to get the needed publicity for the car he wants to sell? Now everybody knows his car is for sale and I believe he is getting a lot of calls from interested buyers right now

exactly my thoughts.

Lol! They didn't know Banky W gotta bad tongue. Insult Banky W at your own peril. Ask Reuben Abati.

Terrible actress is an understatement. Husband responding to every post on internet like a teenage girl.

Is he pained or something?

Right from the beginning I noticed a foul play. How come the drama coincide with the time of auction. These are part of the gimmicks advertisers implore when trying to introduce a new product. Create a scene and get free adverts from media hype then piggy back on it and sell ur stuff since u've already got the attention of the audience... Shikenna

Dude went too far.
U don't respond to internet trolls

Useless right up! Jobless Youths everywhere!!

Even if he did, the girl was silly to fall for the trap...... People should learn to MYOB ....

Amakavula:
Who else feel he should have kept quiet?

No, he shouldn't keep quiet. He posted it on his "blog" and it will generate money.

He just wrote an article. One day, when he's writing a book, he may enlarge that article and turn it to a chapter of the book with the title of the chapter being "The Rover Saga." Writing it part by part will save him time in the future.

I have used that method to generate lots of books. All my relationship articles (which I wrote with a phone) on Nairaland have been turned to books. Some of them are 500 pages.

They have raked millions as I type — on my website www.shop.wetclef.com — on my forum www.wetclef.com — on Amazon's KDP and Createspace, on Draft2Digital, and so on. I use different pen names.

I'm not an author, but I turned my articles to money. Some of them were my replies to people's posts. If I had ignored, I would've lost money just to appear mature in people's eyes. Hater even attacked me and some called me Mr. Long Epistle, but they didn't know my plan. Now, these books will make money even 3 million years to come.

When I reply people on the internet, I reply with the mindset of, "This may be turned to a book one day or at least, a chapter of a book." With this, I put in more effort to make my reply is niche-based, long, and well-written.

There are so many ways to make money, but we Nigerians hardly see them. What he did is an indirect way of writing a book without stress.

Check out some of our relationship books which were once posts and replies on Nairaland. Buy one for your husband.

i feel this was staged. if it wasn't,then banky messed up by explaining so much. it wasn't necessary to be honest.

Way to go Banky W,you showed maturity and my respect for you just stepped higher

You can see the problem with this generation, everyone don't need to be materialistic,but they just wont care, and that's why many of them girls gets into trouble, but it doesn't stop some from going same route.

I don't blame them,some of your colleagues believed the best way to show their fans that level as changed is to oppress them, and push many to destruction.

Like you said, there is a big difference in your upbringing and theirs,and if that's how the see life,good for them,

For you,just continue to been you,everything either good or bad,as it own repercussions.

Stay blessed and happy, Common sense is not common

Bank staged this one.

If you know you know

But really, 2008 range for banky ain't bad na. It's just pure beef.

Amakavula:
Who else feel he should have kept quiet?

Just you dear, just you.

Itchingpreeq:
Mehn, I took my time to reading all that he wrote and really, banky sabi book. The joke is on the stupid *small girl with big God girl* after all.

yes you took your time to reading all that he wrote

Facts from the above....
1. A 2008 RR sport is still a very likely dream car for the bitchez
2. The Bitches on code are crushing on the handsome dude.
3. They crave for autographs.
4. They were in some crappy shit while they criticized a RR sport
5. If only Buhari was specific on the bitches he referred to as "lazy nigerian youth"

Why would you concern yourself with the model/type of car someone is driving? I'd rather concentrate on shaving my armpits hair.

geometricaxis:
Too much story.

why do you have to explain to anybody talk less a stranger?

I'm disappointment he bothered to reply, he's gone down in my estimation.

I'm disappointment with you

Story for the gods. You spent billions getting married in like 10 countries

He could have equally made a video...got tired of the reading at some point

Wow! What a mature response, God bless you Banky

Who else thinks this is some kind of Creating awareness to sell off an old car.

Buh Banky dey intellingent sha.
