Nollywood actor-turned-politician Desmond Elliot has finally confronted the escalating allegations made against him, labelling him as gay.
In an interview with TVC, the ex-filmmaker elaborated on why he initially declined to respond to the allegations, emphasizing that he felt there was no necessity to clarify anything.
Describing the accusation as baseless, he said, “Why would I respond to allegations made against me when it did not reduce or increase my life? Secondly, it is an opinion that is being conceived. And I don’t think it is necessary for me to come out and say it’s true or not true; as long as I’m affecting people positively, I’m good.”
He explained, “If you feel you identify as something as long as it’s within the law people don’t have to accept it, do you. So let me say right here, I’m straight… you can never have anyone straighter than me. If some people want to enjoy themselves through publicity, that’s left to them but I don’t care really. Do you and enjoy yourself but do it within the law and with respect to your neighbours.”
