Desmond Elliot

The veteran Nollywood actor turned politician took to his Instagram page yesterday, August 20, to share photos of the apartment as well as the reasons behind his act of charity.

The woman had succeeded in impressing him with her resilience after she bought a generator to borehole since she washes clothes for a living.

Sharing a photo of the rehabilitated borehole and the woman's generator set, he wrote:

"So I rehabilitated this borehole a few months ago, and the woman in this picture apparently is homeless and lives there at that spot, she bought a generator to power the bore hole (she washes clothes for a living). Boy was I impressed? So I decided to give her a little surprise."

On a picture collage of the apartment and some of the things provided inside of it, Elliot wrote:

"She got a clean, fresh, room apartment with a television,gotv,fan, mattress and chair ..a place to retire to after a days work. Congrats to her".
