Recall Intel Region had earlier reported that 49-year-old Desmond Elliot who has been in the Lagos State House of Assembly since April 2015 till date under the party APC will be vying against 28-year-old actor Oworu Olumide Abiodun of Labour Party for the Lagos State House of Assembly – Surulere 1 constituency.
Despite the backlashes being poured on Desmond Elliot, actress Efe Irele maintained her stands as she claims that Desmond is good representative who has done so well for his constituency, she also goes on to list all the things he has done so far for the people of Surulere.
Efe Irele wrote, “I believe in @desmondelliot not because I know him but because I have seen what he has done as an individual and as a lawmaker. I have seen how he encouraged and supported young Lagosians (including me) in the creative industry. I have seen him provide free shuttle buses for students in Surulere.
I personally know up to 15 out of the 1,000 people he provided free health care and insurance for. Forget PR and social media management, Desmond Elliot is a good representative and I will be supporting and voting for him on Saturday. I am with you my big brother and friend. @desmondelliot.”

seleye_fubara: Watch Obidient extremists bully and troll her and then wail when Apc people bully them in real life. Allow people freedom to choose their candidate ehhhhhhh, democracy is freedom.
tope2salami: why would someone like Desmond, who I think is among the best nollywood movie producer of all times not have the best PR and Social Media team, he probably just got carried away being in Power.
dveryobi: You can’t possibly be canvassing for a supposedly enlighten man who built a wooden bridge for his people in the 21st century!!!
oluwaremu: Efe… this is a wrong move. It should not be YOU !!!!!
iamquddus007: No be dis guy wey call us children be dis?? 😂😂.
ozi.ijn: Tell us exactly how he supported creatives in lagos. Did he build a film studio? Did he build a performing arts theatre? Did he sponsor a local film school? I know he didn’t!!! You are simply supporting him because he gave you roles in movies he produced/directed. Your bar for choosing a candidate is very low because you don’t know the difference between his requirement as a senior political figure and him just being your friend.
vanaulkymoore: It is not his Job to provide those amenities the point is how many bills did he sponsor and got passed to law to improve the lives of his constituents. He can’t be handing people peanuts when he can help them grow the farm.
demi_skillz: Yet they will say he only just bought transformer for his constituency because he need vote . One thing I noticed about all the LP supporters they make you feel like there candidate is the only right choice , if you don’t go deep in checking on other candidates works and what they have done you will be brainwashed that that LP is the best and only right candidate.
