Actor turned politician, Desmond Elliot in an interview with NewTelegraph recalled his journey into the Nigerian make-belief world after about 10 years. Growing slowly in the craft, Desmond revealed he never got good acknowledgment from fellow actor, Ramsey Nouah, when he walked up to him back then.
He explained that Ramsey was listening to a Jamaican song in his car when he walked up to him to make the introduction before he got a cold response from him which made him feel bad.
While narrating his past ordeal, he said,
"Now, it is funny how I see other young actors come to me. They call me by character name and try to explain the role they are playing just the way I introduced myself to Nouah then. It is now a conscious effort to be nicer because truth be told he wasn't really nice to me. He just said okay and he continued listening to his song."
Desmond warned that people should learn to be nice to others no matter their status,
"Don't be quarrelsome because message spread faster. The fact that people felt I was humble worked for me, though they would never give you a bad or hard man's role," he warned.
