Desmond Elliot Surprises Fans with Movie Set Return

Desmond Elliot, a former lawmaker who represented the Surulere Constituency I in the Lagos State House of Assembly, was recently spotted on a movie set, marking a potential return to the film industry after years in politics. Elliot, who was elected in 2015 and served multiple terms, had been away from acting while focusing on his political career.

His appearance in a viral video showcased him in a dramatic costume with the inscription "Lere boy," styled with cornrows and cowries, suggesting a traditional character. The video featured him alongside Nigerian producer and director Ibrahim Chatta at his film village, generating online discussions about the character he might portray.

This sighting comes after Elliot's unsuccessful bid to secure the APC ticket in the party's recent primary election, leading to speculation that he may be re-embracing his acting roots.
