Nollywood actor-turned-politician Desmond Elliot has dismissed claims that he’s gay.
The controversy began after a blog post accused several Nigerian celebrities, such as actors and reality stars, of being gay.
The list, which included the names of several high-profile figures in the country, sparked a strong backlash from netizens.
In a with interview with TVC, he dismissed the accusation as unfounded, emphasizing that he had more pressing matters to attend to than engaging with harmful rumors.
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 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.
“If you feel you identify as something as long as it is within the law. People do not have to accept it, do you.
“So let me say right here, I am straight. You can never have anyone straighter than me.
“If some people want to enjoy themselves through publicity, that is left to them but I do not care really. Do you and enjoy yourself but do it within the law and with respect to your neighbours.”
