Celebrities react to Desmond Elliot's speech at the State House of Assembly session
The actor turned politician has come under fire over his speech on social media regulation in the country.
Nigerian celebrities have been reacting to Desmond Elliot's speech at the state's house of assembly session where he talked about social media regulation.
While speaking on the floor of the House, the actor turned politician pushed for social media regulation, saying Nigerian celebrities and social media influencers promote hate speech in the country.
Elliot said he didn't believe that ‘children’ on social media could be bold enough to curse and insult their leaders following the Lekki shooting incident on Tuesday, October 20.
It didn't take long before some celebrities began to react to his now-famous speech
