Following the viral video of Desmond Elliot’s submission at the State House of Assembly, Ex Presidential spokesperson, Reno Omokri has taken to his Instagram page to blast the young politician/ Nollywood actor over his strong comments on the negative impacts of social media and dying Nigerian culture in relation to the series of violence that erupted in Lagos.
The video pictured Desmond Elliot urging the speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly to “address certain things” like “the Nigerian youth, the social media, and the social influencers”.
He further expressed his anger on ‘children cursing’ and hauling ‘abusive words’, adding that ‘Nigeria will be no more’ in the next five years if immediate actions were not taken.

Reno Omokri posted a picture of Desmond with the caption,
Desmond Elliott was acting for his political godfathers to see his loyalty. He is ambitious. He does not believe what he said. He believed he was writing a promotion exam. And he felt that the person that would grade his paper is Bola Tinubu. But Nigeria has changed. Power has shifted to the people. Even Bola Tinubu himself can’t recover from the effects of the last two weeks.
Desmond Elliot expects someone who can’t save himself to save him. Alas, he unwisely chose to be the proverbial fly that followed the corpse into the grave. Tinubu is now a political corpse. He once had the Midas Touch. But now, all that Tinubu has left is the Leprous Touch! Desmond incurred the wrath of forces more powerful than his godfathers, and they may sacrifice him to appease that force
The man @DesmondElliot has 1.5 million followers on Instagram. If in 1 hour’s time, he still has 1.5 million followers, then I will know and accept that everything that he said about Nigeria’s youth is true, because only a fool follows a person that has nothing but disdain for them. Nigeria’s youth must show that government must be afraid of them and one way to do this is by showing that irresponsible speech and action has consequences!
