The Federal Government have reacted to the video which shows singer Tekno in a transparent van with unclad girls in Lagos traffic.
The video which drew the attention of Lagos State Government sees the Federal Government labelling it as ‘Jezebelistic’ and unacceptable to the Nigerian culture.
According to a statement issued by the Director General, National Council for Arts and Culture, a parastatal of the Federal Ministry of Information and Culture, Segun Runsewe, Tekno will be investigated for his action.
The statement in part reads:
“The Lekki public show negates the beauty of the Nigerian culture and way of life. It is unacceptable, ‘Jezebelistic’ and sins against the Nigerian culture, and must be condemned, ridiculed and rejected by Nigerians.
“The Lekki debacle must be used as an example to officially clamp down on promoters and influencers of strange entertainment from the pit of hell. Nigeria will never succumb to an imported cultural pastime or to blackmail tailored to destroy centuries-old and rich Nigerian culture.
“This dizzying madness cannot and will not be allowed to turn Nigeria into a destination for sex and illegal drugs tourism. Enough is enough, and for God’s sake, where is this coming from?”.
