Asoozy: His name don already disqualify him. He better revert back to his Yoruba last name.

Moreso he is half Igbo.

Yeye dey smell so now he remembers his real first name? When he needed to get into nollywood he discarded his Yoruba identity so as to be accepted fully into the ibo industry.

Nonsense and alubosa!

He is not even married to a Yoruba o.

This is the reason why the SW will continue to board last in tests coming behind Kano and soon Katsina
Bush mentality

Is that the guy's second name?

Or we should all conclude from your post that ibos are nosy pukefaces?

Since you got exposed you've been running amok with your tribalism, you will just die for nothing.

sirjohnson: Most people dont actually know that this guy is Yoruba, same as Ramsey Nouah.
by birth he should be from Akwa-Ibom or Cross River, but be born and raised in Lagos State he is Lagosian and possess the right to contest for an elective position in Lagos State. That is d way it should be withg every Nigerian in any part of this country.

handysuzy:

His father is Yoruba while his mother Igbo, as for his surname, I think he is a Lagosian, so am not surprised.
his father or his mother don't have to be a yoruba for him to answer a yoruba name, I know of many igbos who gave a yoruba name to their children and both couples are from the east, beside Desmond Elliot is not an igbo, he is a calaba guy either from Akwa-Ibom or Cross-River.

"Olusola" Desmond Elliot, Never knew you were "Olusola" but apart from Elliot the actor, what is your followership base politically? What are you bringing to the table? Election isn't won and lost on social network. You need to be a damn grassroot man and not just a popular face on TV. I don't knw who is deceiving you guys in nollywood but it would have been better for you to build your base network and connect with the peÓple before declaring for office. I don't see you coming 4th in the "Primaries" but I wish you well

Why do yorubas lump every one from the south south as ibos? my yoruba mechanic said its because he knows of only three tribes in Nigeria, I reasoned with him because of his level of education but when educated yoruba NLers make same mistake, I give up.

I have known him to be Yoruba for a while. However this is politics, I dont know the area he will be representing. is it is residential area or his dads area?
how has he contributed to those areas?

I doubt if he emerges from ward congress not to talk of primaries.

These are the same hypocrites that castigate Igbos for not ''supporting'' Rochas, the same people that Lable Nollywood an Igbo industry when it suits them and a Nigerian industry when it suits them, talking from boths sides of the mouth must be a virtue in their culture.
I shudder to think of how much more hateful these comments would have been if the guy wasn't in APC. I am sure most of the haters aren't even from Lagos, they might be some of these Osun and Oyo people that always want to claim Lagos yet they want to dictate to a true Lagosian whether he can run for an election in his own state.
How laughable.
