Nollywood actor cum politician, Desmond Elliot representing Surulere constituency at the Lagos State house of assembly is currently under fire online for commissioning a 'biofil' public toilet in his constituency.
According to Desmond Elliot, 'this isnt just a building, its not just a toilet, but one that converts waste to manure so nothing is wasted as we keep the environment clean'.
Nigerians are however not buying his explanation...
Not too young to run, not too young to run
Boom!
The very young Desmond Elliot commissions this toilet as constituency project.
Lesson: Don't give positions of authority to people based on their age. Age, whether old or young, isn't one of the characteristics of a good leader.

February 21, 2019You are insulting Desmond Elliot for commissioning a toilet, please what has your state house of assembly representative commissioned since 2015?— Your Village People (@Onyema_Donald)
February 21, 2019Very toxic, horrid and vile people on Twitter. Quick to pull others down.
Desmond Elliot didn't build the toilet..It was donated to his constituency in conjunction with the Australian high commision.
Why the eagerness to pull the man down?

February 21, 2019Dear Nigerians, we can now see, from Desmond Elliot and Buhari's incompetency, that visionary leadership has nothing to do with age. In the coming elections, look for candidates with capacity and cast your votes for them. Do not support blindly this time.

February 22, 2019I don't understand why Desmond Elliot is being dragged for commissioning a toilet. There are communities where 'simple' things like that are very much needed.
On close observation, most young people don't know what they really want.— TweetaminE K (@kene_Maestro)
February 21, 2019When Desmond Elliot was campaigning then I supported him but till now how many of you have heard of him or what he has done for the youth. Even common community match he didn’t organize— Rawlings Onyi (@Whisper2raw)
February 22, 2019I really don't think the toilet "Desmond Elliot" built was a bad thing as some communities in Nigeria don't have basic amenities as normal as this...but the fanfare around the commissioning was were they fucked up.— D Bil'ionaire (@itzKay_B)
February 21, 2019This is Desmond Idiot, sorry Desmond Elliot commissioning a public toilet he built for his constituency. APC na disaster
