I Didn't Go Into Politics as a Poor Man - Desmond Elliot Slam Critics

"I really beg to be different when it comes to politics. I didn’t go in as a poor man, I didn’t go in because I don’t have money to eat, that’s why I never changed my twitter or Instagram handle. I do everything myself, nothing changed about me. I hate when people over bloat themselves. For me, service is what it’s supposed to be, that’s why from the beginning of my campaign, I never wanted any political godfather, no one is telling me I put you there, then you must do this for me.

I’m eternally grateful to my party for seeing me worthy to be in that position. I don’t have an entourage, I just have myself, my PA and my driver, and most times I do the driving myself. It’s a call to service because coming from a popular stand point I’m not seeking for popularity, the aim to leave a legacy of success and real change."
