Elliot was listed among several prominent Nigerian celebrities accused of involvement in homosexuality, which triggered a strong response online.

In a viral interview clip with TVC, Elliot dismissed the claims as baseless, saying he has more important matters to focus on than responding to unfounded gossip.

In his words;

“Why would I respond to allegations made against me when it did not reduce or increase my life? Secondly, it is an opinion that is being conceived.”

“And I don’t think it is necessary for me to come out and say it’s true or not true; as long as I’m affecting people positively, I’m good. So let me state it very clearly that I am straight.”
