Lagos state House of Assembly hopeful and All Progressives Congress member, Desmond Olusola Elliot, was allegedly caught sharing money to woo voters in Lagos state, according to an image by a citizen reporter.

In the said image, the Nollywood star who wore a native attire with his initial DOE boldly written on his cap, was surrounded by policemen and others. It is not certain if the money was for the policemen or the voters.

However, he has denied the allegation, arguing that he did not need to bribe anyone. He didn’t give further information on why he shared the money.

“Please remain focused and prayerful, I didn’t bribe my way to where God has placed me, is it now that I will start.. and what am I bribing them for again?” he said in a tweet.

Vanguard cannot independently verify the authenticity and time of the photograph. We have also contacted him for further information on the image.
