Desmond Elliot Shuts Down Gay Rumors: Calls for Respect and Focus on Real Issues.

Nollywood actor and politician Desmond Elliot recently addressed rumors about his sexuality, after a blog circulated a list that claimed he and other Nigerian male celebrities were gay.

In an interview with TVC, Elliot shared that he had initially ignored the rumors because he felt they didn’t warrant a response. He expressed that his focus has always been on helping people, rather than reacting to baseless claims. Elliot clarified, “I’m straight. No one is straighter than me,” and suggested that public figures should not be forced to prove themselves against unfounded gossip.

Elliot also stressed the importance of tolerance and mutual respect, asserting that everyone has a right to live as they choose, as long as it’s within the law. He encouraged people to respect others’ choices and identities, saying that public life often makes individuals targets for gossip and speculation, but he prefers to focus on his contributions to society rather than confront such rumors. Elliot noted that while he respects people’s diverse identities, respect should be mutual.

The rumors, according to sources, had spread quickly on social media, creating a stir among fans and followers of various Nigerian celebrities named in the list. Many of the listed celebrities opted not to respond, leaving room for public speculation, but Elliot’s direct response aimed to set the record straight while promoting respect and tolerance in public discourse.
