The incident , which happened three days ago , showed the musician being filmed by two women at a grocery store who apparently felt the vehicle he was driving was not suitable for someone in his class , whereas raining insults at him as he was offloading goods into his vehicle.
In response to the “ cringe worthy, creepy video ” as described by the artiste, he revealed that the vehicle was in fact not a 1999 model but a 2008 own and it was currently on sale to the highest bidder.
“ The 2008 Range is up for auction . We ’re using the car sale to raise money for a worthy cause, so we’ll start the bidding at one million naira only ,” Banky said.
He noted that he still drove a 2008 model SUV due to the need to own a nice home before a newer car.
“ 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,” he added.
Banky said as the car went from being “ kind -of - trendy” to being just old, he decided to get a smaller vehicle and remained adamant at getting a nicer model until he got a house of his own .
