Actor/Director Desmond Elliot has joined
the list of Nollywood stars who have
decided to delve into politics He is
contesting for a seat in the Lagos State
House of Representatives. He gave his
reasons to the Nigerian Tribune
"The current situation is very
pathetic. I feel God has helped me
thus far and I want to give back
through politics that will be
favourable to the youths. The worst
part of our national life is that the
level of corruption has not allowed
youths to
understand what it means to live a
meaningful life . Just because of lack
of knowledge of what to do, we are
being side tracked. There are no jobs,
and issues like these lead to
frustration. A lot needs to be done on
agriculture, every state in Nigeria
needs to see how it can contribute to
nation building. There’s a lot that
needs to be done and changed."
