"People don't believe I'm Lagosian because I don't Act Yoruba Movies"-Desmond Elliot



Nollywood actor Desmond Olushola Elliot has been criticized by fans for adding the OLUSHOLA in his name all because of election, the actor in an interview with city people said: “I am from Lagos state. My father is from Olowogbowo in Lagos Island but my mother is from Delta state. I refer to myself as being a Pan-African. People don’t believe I am a Lagosian because I seldom act in Yoruba movies. And I didn’t include the Shola in my name. Then because my surname is also English, many couldn’t differentiate which made people confused of where exactly I am from.

I am very detribalised. People of my constituency know my story and know where I come from. I have always used Shola in my primary school days. I went to Air Force Primary School in Plateau and later attended St John’s College, both in Jos. I proceeded to Lagos State University where I studied Economics and graduated in 2003″
