Nollywood actor and Politician Desmond Elliot has come out to exonerate himself from blame after receiving several backlash for his recent comments.
Recall that the 46-year-old actor and Member of Lagos State House of Assembly, was spotted in a video currently trending on the internet, pushing for a bill against the use of social media in Nigeria.
He literally forgot the fact that social media was very instrumental to his political appointment some years ago.
