Bankole Wellington says the passion for service is fueling his ambition to represent Eti-Osa federal constituency in the National Assembly.

“So, we have to get into the system to be able to fix it from within,” he said on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday. “That is really what inspired me some years ago to start changing my focus.”
