Duncan explained that a vice president should not only be instrumental when the president is out of the country but that he should also be active in the daily running of the country.

The situation of things in Nigeria has made several people discover the hidden politician in them. Another music star, Banky W, recently revealed that he is running for a seat at the House of Representatives.

He announced his intention to serve as a federal legislator, representing Eti-Osa local government area of Lagos state in the coming 2019 election.
