The lawmaker representing Surulere Constituency 1, Desmond Elliot, has reacted to a report that he and some other prominent Nigerians are gay.
The member of the Lagos State House of Assembly reacted to the allegation against him in an interview he granted Television Continental.
Elliot, also a Nollywood actor, 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 do not 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.
