'desmond Eliot', Where In Nigeria Is He From? by ezeagu(m): 9:56pm On May 09, 2009
What is 'Desmond Elliot's' ethnicity, I've always wondered and at first I though he was a middle belter, but I started hearing he was Yoruba/Igbo. What is he? (please answer the question, nothing else lol)

Heard his father is Yoruba while his mother's from Delta.

if he's half Yoruba, born, raised and schooled in lagos, then what's wrong with his being from lagos ?

you sound like you know for sure he's not from lagos ? ie that his Yoruba side is from some other state.

@topic, Let me start by telling d house dat the name ELLIOT is d name of those brazilians that settled in Lagos Island back in those days-1924-10yrs after amalgamation. Names in this categaory includes but not limited to Doherty,Da Silva,VeraCruz,DaCosta,Salvador,Lashman,Palmers,Bastos,Marcos(Marquez) and many more i can't remember.Anyone with any of the above mentioned names as surname/lastname/family name definately hail form Lagos State.
Now,back to Desmond's issues,he was born and bred in Lagos Island(Olowogbowo/Elegbata/Apongbon area precisely for those that r conversant with that particular area) , he grew up there and i also grew up in d same area.He is my elder brother's very close childhood friend(They r still very close anyway).That's all I know of his growing up.His school?I need not know.

I wonder oh.

Most Yorubas with English or Brazilian last names are more likely to come from Lagos, Ogun and sometimes Osun.
