Desmond Elliot Apologized

Popular Nigerian actor turned politician, Desmond Elliot has again tendered a public apology for his insensitive comments about the youths during October 2020 EndSARS protest.

Recall that the Lagos lawmaker representing the Surulere I constituency at the State legislature was dragged on social media after referring to Nigerian youths who reacted to the shootings at the Lekki Tollgate as children. He pushed for the regulation of social media after the protest.

However, in a swift response, Elliot had in October 2020 issued a statement in which he apologized to those whose toes he stepped on with his comments.

The lawmaker, during his recent interview on TVC’s ‘Your View’, offered clarity on the matter, insisting he wasn’t referring to all youths on social media as children but those who were cursing Lagos House of Assembly Speaker, Mudashiru.

He said: “What I can say is, I think forgiveness is divine. I mean, no one owns it all. Something can be your truth, and to another person, it might not be. I do not think going back to bring out those sensitive moments would do anything.

“I think at the end of the day, I apologized, and I’m still apologizing to those who must have misconstrued what I said. I said I was taken by emotions, but in the end, it still didn’t take away from the fact that the hatred was too much. The polity, the hatred is too much. We are all built on love. We can change things through love.”

Wunmi Toriola Clears The Air On Alleged Romance With Toyin Abraham’s hubby And Adeniyi Johnson

Nollywood actress, Wumi Toriola has reacted to trending reports that she had an affair with a colleague, Kolawole Ajeyemi, who is Toyin Abraham’s husband.

Gistlover had stirred the report of an alleged affair between Kolawole and Wumi Toriola, after uploading a side-by-side photo of Toyin Abraham and Wumi Toriola.

In the comment section, many insinuated that Wumi had slept with Kolawole. An Instagram user identified as sublove_alexg claimed that Wumi slept with Kolawole Ajeyemi, but she apologized to Toyin.

Reacting to it, Wumi Toriola via a lengthy post on her Instagram page shut down the report.

She called the report false, diabolic, and evil, which is intended at spoiling her name.

Wumi Toriola made it known that she didn’t have an affair with Kolawole Ajeyemi nor with Toyin’s ex-husband, Adeniyi Johnson.

She questioned why the blogger’s fans are fixated on tarnishing people’s image and causing continuous rancor.

“This morning, my attention was called to a diabolical comment on Gistlover’s blog that I slept with a colleague’s husband.

Not only is the comment false, but it is also diabolical, evil, and intended to soil my name.

Not only did I not sleep with the said person’s present husband, I did not have any intimate relationship with her former husband as well.

I do not know why this person’s fans are fixated on the continuous tarnishing of my image and bent on causing continuous rancour, but I do know that this is the last time I will be responding to anything regarding this person.

I have moved in. I a focusing only on the future and just want to make movies. By the way, my next production is Queen Lateefah for the big platforms. That is what I will be putting my energy on henceforth, not responding to people whose only goal is to see my downfall.

I will not fall or fail as long as God is on the throne. God is the greatest and to him alone will I continue to owe my sustenance”.
