Nollywood actor and politician, Desmond Elliot has donated new transformers for his constituents ahead of the elections.
Desmond, who is running for a third term to represent Surulere Constituency at the Lagos State House of Assembly under the All Progressives Congress (APC), donated eight transformers to his Local Government Area.
Taking to his social media page, the lawmaker announced that he has installed brand new high-capacity transformers in eight communities his Surulere constituency, so as to give electricity to people who have been deprived of light for years.
Desmond Elliott, “I am excited to announce that new high-capacity transformers have been installed in Surulere, bringing reliable electricity to communities that have long needed it. The new transformers include:
Somade Crescent; Methodist Church by Small London; 300Kva
Main Street between Barracks and Tejuosho; 500Kva
Clegg Street, Inside Fire Brigade, 500Kva
James Robertson Junction; 500Kva
Akerele by Havana Hospital; 500Kva
Martins Street; 500Kva
Oke-Ona/Ladele Dada/Alawode Transformer; 500Kva (Surulere 2)
Tafawa Balewa Crescent; 500Kva”.
“This is an update of the progress we are making in bringing reliable electricity to our community. As your representative, I am committed to delivering on my promises and bringing positive change to our community. Join me in this journey of progress and development!”
Desmond Elliot’s last-minute gesture nine days before the elections held the internet in a frenzy as Nigerians lon social media ashed their displeasure on him.
While Sanwo-Olu has suddenly become a Father Christmas, Desmond Elliot decided to give his constituency a transformer (1 week) to election. Peter Obi is forcing their hands to do what they should have done since 2015/2019. Can we agree that Nigerian politicians belong in Hell? pic.twitter.com/b3i4JItfMD

Desmond Elliot giving out a new transformer to his constituency 1 week to elections. The most annoying thing is that these people know what to do, have the resources to do it but they choose to swallow all the money. It can’t be well with bad politicians. pic.twitter.com/3tbrgUvwcS

Desmond Elliot donated "eight" transformers to his constituency (Surulere), he's been commissioning toilets & building substandard bridges since, but just a few days to election he remembers that his constituency needs electricity; All this to win election. He's such a d!sgrace.

Sanwo Olu is everywhere including my dreams making promises left, right and centre.

But why didn't Desmond Elliott give out those transformers long before now?
