Nollywood actor and Lagos lawmaker, Desmond Elliot, has
advised Nigerians to channel their passion and energy towards the election of
credible leaders same way they did with the just conclude Big Brother Naija.
Over 26 million votes were recorded from viewers for the
final of show, which saw Efe Michael Ejemba emerged winner of the 25 million
naira prize money and KIA Sorrento SUV.
Elliot, who is also a member of the Lagos State House of
Assembly, shared his thoughts on his Instagram page, desmondelliot.
He said that the nation “would be a much better place being
governed by our people of choice” if they put the same energy used for the
reality TV show.
The lawmaker who shared it on the posted a photo of the
winner of the competition, Efe with the caption, “just a few lessons I believe
we as a nation, a people can learn from
“We are all different in thoughts, actions and behaviour but
unique in many ways .Just as they tolerated one another we also should learn to
do same.
“If we put in half as much interest and energy that we did
in #bigbrothernaija2017, into those we elect into public offices (including
yours truly).
“ Naija would be a much better place being governed by our
people of choice. Nigerians are not as illiterate as we portray ourselves to
be, obvious the masses vote for EFE.
“ Many flew out of the country to witness his “coronation”
and KNEW EXACTLY what they wanted and they GOT IT.
“It pays to always be yourself at all times, never let “them
turn you to who (you’re) not. Bottom line if you cannot influence them, do not
join them!!!
“Congratulations to Efe, may God grant you the wisdom to
manage this… all of these so you come out tops in all your endeavors. Amen. I
sign out.’’
Elliot who is a ‘ONE’ ambassador was present at the grand
finale where he was a co – presenter of the award for best presentation on the
ONE campaign.
The award went to Bisola Aiyeola who was the first runner up
while Tokunbo ‘Tboss’ Idowu, the second runner up won the prize for being the
