When she was asked about female Nollywood stars reportedly having same-sex relationships, the subject became much more intriguing.

Eve refused to speak further and noted that she would wait till a similar list of female celebrities emerged before discussing the matter.

While Yul and some of his colleagues are yet to clarify the allegations, politician Desmond Elliot finally responded to questions regarding his sexuality.

In a TVC interview, Desmond dismissed the claims as unfounded and unworthy of his answer.

"Why would I respond to an allegation that neither increases nor decreases my life?" he asked.

He denied the allegation, saying, "I am not gay." The Surulere legislator also raised the alarm about bloggers' unregulated influence, calling the government to consider regulating sites such as Gistlover, which he claimed thrived on personal assaults and false rumours.

The blogger previously claimed to have evidence and witnesses to back up its assertions. Many of those on the list acted fast to protect their reputations.
