Because the powers that put him there said NO!
When Elliot was benefiting from the system three different elections did he complain?

..then let him go back to Nollywood he was even making it big over there

So all that begging and grovelling he did on TV no work. I can't do politics sha. Better stay here and be hustling for my daily 2k.

Making which big?
Don't believe everything you see and hear.
Those making real money in acting and music are not up to 5% of those in the industry. Most of it is smoke and mirrors. Illusions.
Elliot has tasted the two ( acting and politics). He knows there is no easy money like politics money . And basically all politicians are selfish and self centred people. He is only interested in the perks and easy money he makes from representation of Surulere. He knows he can never get such money from acting and entertainment, no matter how many years he acts!

SmartPolician:
If not for Nairaland bots, na better blast you for chop! Who made Lagos State the personal property of your so-called Baba?

I don't really understand this culture of servitude abi na Stockholm syndrome! It's even annoying that you people want to export it to other states!

Go and make your region liveable and leave Lagos alone.

T[quote]

If Desmond served his constituency well, many people would have stood up for him. Most of the projects were done by Gbaja. I remember one annoying plank bridge he built. Something corpers could have done as community project.

Anyway, 3 terms is enough. Even Remi Tinubu didn't stay so long as a Senator. Na turn by turn things. 🤷‍♀️

SmartPolician:
What's the meaning of the emboldened? That criminal group you lots worship must be disbanded!

A simple apology would have sufficed.

You misunderstood his point of view.

Politics should never be a lifelong career or a do-or-die affair battle, but rather a short, temporary period of civic service.

Since his godfathers don’t want him to contest in the next election, he should quit politics and go back to his acting job.

The modern-day politicians in Nigeria just want to be in power for life and treat every election as a do-or-die affair.

DESMOND nah confam JEUN K'OKU/JEUN S'OKE (I remember Abami Eda Fela) leave stage make another person chop .


Nah wen Our ABIAN pipu go chase that ABARIBE and NDUME comot go home

In politics what he did is unforgivable.

They will punish him to serve as a strong example to others who may want to toe the same path in future

Well spoken, brother.

Goosethetruth:
You don't want to go down that route with me. So caution yourself.
An average actor benefited from an obnoxious system that elevated him above his level and now refuses to accept that the same system is now being used to benefit another person.
You can't have your cake and eat it.
Before any contest you need to understand the rules. Elliot is not even from the Surulere axis of Lagos. He was foisted onto Surulere by the obnoxious Baba Sope system.For over 12 years he did no tangible project for Surulere people . Now the same system that produced him are telling him the game is up and over and now it is the turn of another person to benefit from the same obnoxious system and you are here lamenting as if you are being castrated.
Don't ever dictate to a grown man what he should post on a public forum. I am not responsible for your failure to comprehend my simple post.

That is a real concern for Mr. Desmond to think about if its true

Wound you have acted differently,when baba had already sope.

Goosethetruth:
I don't understand how (an average Nollywood actor known more for playing romantic roles than an intellectual sagacity) you benefited from a Baba sope system of politics and when Baba says that it is the turn of another person and you are refusing to tow the line that brought you to office.
The powers that be have taken away your office and bestowed it upon another. You don't need an Oracle to tell you that the game is up unless you are thick upstairs.

But is Desmond An Old Politician
Or A Young Man in Politics ?
Because many Nigerians says it is young people that can do it or Fix Nigeria.
So,Can We See The Greed,the Disconnect and Lack of Vision For -Young Politicians in Nigeria ❓
- We ( NIGERIANS) - irrespective of our Tribe, • Ethnicity and Religion backgrounds MUST :
• Demands For Accountability,
•Transparent 🪟 in the Political Process- In Timely Basis - 12- yrs Nothing to show for it
For example - where are the Roads 🛣️,
where are the Lights - Solar Lights etc,
-Where Are The Youths Employments,
-Where are the Social Amenities, including ----Retirees Pension and Gratuity,etc.

ufotunang:
..but why can't Desmond Elliott look forward and contest for house of reps.. move from his political journey

You have been saying this particular statement since the beginning of this saga, is there a reason?

Some people follow follow wave, where it is happening, that's where they wanna be

HeadNigga:
He should have decamped. But let's be honest he didn't perform...even Ambode that performed could not return.

I just know merit has no place there though...

where did he performed? Just shut up.

ALHAJIJUJU:
No problem, contact Alhaji if anyone dares you again.

Verily! I have the Mat and the slippers!

Lol

Unfortunately, he is thick upstairs.


Did he not boast to Edi people that he is a beneficiary of Godfatherism?

Now the godfather has said “no”, yet he is acting deaf.

He clearly didn't understand you. Somehow, both of you are on the same page

oloshun:
Lol

Are you joking with Alhaji.

Alhaji has the mat, the slippers, the tes b and the kettle, the squatting methods, the sand box, the egg and the snail for conviction.

And verily Alhaji can give you power.

Does Desmond want to remain in the Lagos State HOA forever? If he believes himself to be a good actor, he should go back to Nollywood. Three terms is enough, wanting a fourth amounts to being insecure.

He is displaying what his ancestors are known for. everything is bitterness and emotion to them. Desmond Elliot should be grateful to even become a legislator in the first instance. he was not better than others but favour from God and people like Gbajamialla. the current majority leader of house of rep, Julius ihvonbere lost relection yesterday in Edo north because he failed to honour bowing out after two tenure agreement in his owan zone axis and contested but was voted out. the current edo speaker will likely not return too cos same agreement will work against him.

Jayhome24:
Desmond is gunner we told him we will ot return him because he is catastrophic and very useless. Only thing we can attributed to Desmond I d I o t is he built one plank legs bridge across one small gutter and that is all.

Des I d i o t sorry game over you can freely join NDC bitch they are failures like you. Safe trip!

ADC is a not failure..I am happy you mentioned NDC..You are very pained

Time for the poor dude to come back to reality, go back to acting and not act like an Ediot.

Those who have been coming back over the years, are they also insecure or are we to cherry pick?

He wallows in deceit thinking that having spent about three terms in the Lagos legislature has made him an independent voice in Lagos politics! He is about to be cut to size!! His greatest undoing will be to decamp to some other political party- he will labour in vain!
