In a saner climes what Desmond did is not wrong. He was not the only one that signed the impeachment petition against obasa. Also there was a good and constitutional reason to impeach obasa and he was legally impeached only that we have a corrupt president who broke the law for obasa to be reinstated. I know Desmond offended many people I think during end sars but as per this election he is within his constitutional right. Let’s call a spade a spade APC has not come to make Nigeria better

He chickened out

All of you shouting 'go get your pvc'...who tell you say your vote go count

Don't mind dem. Naija where votes dont count. People are still sleeping. After 2027 they will wakeup and go back to sleep.

He tried. He can now return to Canada to join his wife and kids.

It is Politics
Do you know Fashola once betrayed Tinubu
Today he is an indispensable Tinubu man.

Leaders build people up
They don't destroy them

Fashola has never betrayed Tinubu. In his famous words about that incident "May our loyalties never be tested".

He for try am. Mumu boy. Go back to nollywood

DeepSight:
12 Years a Slave you mean. A well fed one sha.

You know the amusing thing? All the clowns dragging Elliot that he has spent 12 years are siding with Gbaja who spent 20 years in the House of Reps and was about to do more until he was made CoS to Tinubu
They don't reckon that as greed
That's how serfs think
Everything done by their overlords is always right and they rise against their fellow serfs in deference to the overlords

Amazing isn't it?

This one will be asking the same stewhipd and tribalistic questions all over different threads.

No be me say make you no see food chop oo

Now answer the question, is Desmond Elliott a Yoruba man or not? People from Ogun go enter Lagos dey get say for Lagos matter

Time to bow out. U dont bite the fingers that feeds.
Go back to Nollywood or keep campaigning for Tinubu or the governorship candidate, prove ur loyalty and U may get commissioner or DG to a strong parastatal

After losing?😂😂😂😂😂

Reference:
There is no impact anyone can make in a teleguided political scenario such as us Lagos. He has been acting a political movie (no pun intended) for three terms now, the script being written in the studios of the Godfather of Lagos politics.

Do you think if he was performing and growing in popularity he will have been let loose for three terms. No. One law of power is that you cannot outshine your master. In a feudal system this is a cardinal sin and is punishable in the former Soviet union by death. Your seat at the regular politburo meeting will not be there when you arrive and you have to exit the room through a special door where KGB agents will be eating to strangle you to death.

Like some said he got there through the feudal system and has been killed through it. Same fate awaits the present head that wears the crown. She will be used and when her time is up, abused.

Nothing beats democracy if you want unfettered performance. They say Fasola was arguably the best performer on that seat since 1999. Why is his political DNA not the standard bearer for Lagos, why someone else.

I concur
The feudal lord blue print is a corrupt design to perpetuate self for eternity ‼️

Christistruth03:
Tinubu now needs to draw him close with his other hand.
Give him an appointment where he can be useful

Children are disciplined to mend their character not to finish them

Desmond has no use. The only thing he's useful for is to be a bad example.

As usual childish and senseless comment. Small pikin.

He lost of lot of weight just within 2-3 weeks. Na wao

This guy f-up badly. He didn't think of the future

Checked the date you even registered on Nairaland and it's obvious who the small pikin is. No need to reply you

Emeskhalifa:

So the date you registered on Nairaland is what determines someone's age? You are truly a kid! Of course no need replying me again because your comments are meaningless and very childish.

I doubt if you are up to 30 years....kiddo.

Tinubu is my godfather, this and that are my godfathers.

Everything that has a beginning, has an ending.

kolnel:
Very greedy guy. He had same position for 3 consecutive times. Does he think this political position is his family right? He should move on or test his popularity by contesting on another political platform.

Unfortunately, the new electoral law doesn't allow him to move on to the next party and continue the contest.

There's something wrong with APC Lagos especially, why the intimidation and harassment since they know he's not the annointed and can't win?

Why not just allow him to fail in peace?

A blockbuster is about to hit your cinema…are you ready?

I believe we’re ready😂

Slave?? As how na? He enjoyed na, didn’t he?

enemyofprogress:
no mind the guy. He was forming James Bond to impress people like ajepako and Dominique.

In the grand design to avert the previous election mistake in Lagos, PBAT may not take chance with some people.
