Those who rally around him are greedy and carlous.

After 4 terms, Haba Nigeria.

He should allow others to do better to the constituency after all, his constituency said, he has not done anything that can be written about.

Let them name his achievement to the constituency and not personal gain. Serving your people for 8 years more than enough to achieve many things in your constituency. Let other people taste the goodies of that position.
12 years bro. He's achievement is so poor that he's constituents demanded hes exit from that place. Such a disgrace. Young man with no achievement and hes not even from Lagos state

Jokers! Is the post his birth right? He wants to go again the fourth time, why? He is not even from Lagos yet he wants to die there.

This nollywood people are not serious. They would be making movies that speaks to the corruption of the ruling class, yet they are supporting this greed. Is Desmond Elliot the only competent man in Surulere? Abeg they should rest joor.

Abi now. He is going for 5th term as a member of Lagos State House of Assembly. Afterall, he is not the only candidates in the community- Surulere.
LagosOrigin:
Tinubu has decided Desmond fate already as the landlord of Lagos , Desmond should go and eat the money he has gathered or better still wait for another four years to contest in akwa ibom where he originally comes from since he has been rejected by tinubu in Lagos .

Politicians are funny. Just tell the people what you have done for them for the past 8 years, if you have any and the rest will be history.

Lol... That tells you how desperate the guy has become.

An average Yoruba actor knows better than to stand against the Landlord of Eko.

These old actors are simply collecting a quick buck.

Will our celebrities be ever wise enough to rally support persistently for a worthy cause like awareness campaign on liver cancer that killed Alex Ekubo recently?

Abi we should continue relying on our oyinbo racist "superiors" to bail us out on such matters huh

The same oyinbos some still blame for our enduring underdevelopment, almost seven decades after we told the colonialists that we can do well on our own independent of them.
Oyinbo went through everything we are going through today, certainly from 00AD to 1850 just before our slavery spurred the industrial revolution.

Our country is not one naturally and will never be one. Once we sort this problem out development will begin.

Na the masses sef do dey beg me.

He must have been a big disappointment in Surulere.
The guy no try at all. No consituency project to point at as his achievement. Does he think surulere 1 nah mumu people.
I met a woman, she is igbo by tribe. The woman said if Gbaja is contesting 100 times, they are going to continue voting for him, because he really worked for surulere federal consituency.
Ask Desmond to memtion his achievement.

What works are you doing to sort out this problem so development can begin?

Abi you are waiting for 1850 years to pass before the problem is sorted out just by the passage of time only?

How many developed countries are one naturally huh

Most if not all developed countries have the advantages of homogeneity - go and check it out.

In the case of China and Russia - they have a dominant group at the centre of their governance. Such a dominant group does not exist in Nigeria.

Nigeria will unravel by itself naturally by common sense as each group gets wiser and protective, and reject subjugation, dominance, cheating and encroachment. The south will scatter first and then go north.

All thru his acting career, he has never added Olushola to his name. When he was vying for the HOA surulere consituency 1, he added olushola.
Politics money nah water...... Very sweet. The guy no wan leave that sit

He is effectively gone now!

He tried, and should go and rest. I heard he wants to vie for a top post in Lagos parliament like Speaker or something.

A to un rin wa wants to run our House of Assemby? Asunu!

This is what you get when you place your fellow human in the same estate as a god of your fore fathers.

Looking at the man in blue to the right of the speaker in the first picture, he could use all the financial help he can get. I am sure that even 5 cups of rice and N5k will go a long way in his life. He looks pitiful.

The people have not said anything yet. Let him test his popularity at the polls but if the party is not allowing them to test their popularity and selecting candidates through so-called consensus, then it's not the people, it's SOME PARTY PEOPLE.
So you no read news when surulere people said they don't want him representing them anymore... Which one is consensus or party people make unnecessary hatred no wound you o
