Nollywood actor-turned-politician Desmond Elliot has firmly denied rumors that he is gay after a blog post circulated, naming several Nigerian celebrities and accusing them of being gay. The list, which included popular actors and reality stars, quickly drew a heated response from the public.

 

In an interview with TVC, Elliot dismissed the accusations as baseless and said he wouldn’t waste energy on unfounded rumors.

 

“Why would I respond to allegations that neither add nor take away from my life?” he said. “It’s just an opinion that some people have. I don’t see the need to clarify it as long as I’m positively impacting others.”

 

Elliot continued, “I am straight. You can’t find anyone straighter than me. If people want attention, that’s on them. But do whatever you do with respect and within the law.”

 

With this, Elliot made clear he was moving on, choosing to focus on his work and his impact on society rather than rumors.
