Desmond Elliot is one of the several Nollywood actors who have joined the political bandwagon to help change the face of politics in the country. The actor has already kicked off his campaign and was able to gather over 1,000 youths at the Eagles Square, Surulere to endorse his candidature for the APC constituency seat ticket at the Lagos State House of Assembly Representing Surulere constituency 1.
While speaking with newsmen after the event, he said;
“I have plans of taking this above legislative work, I believe 80% of the youths should have access to tertiary education and still earn a living, so we have a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the National Open University on admissions and to grant the students work permit. There is also an empowerment program for the youths which will come up soon; we also have plans for the elderly ones with an insurance scheme”.
