The Director General of the National Council for Arts and Culture, Segun Runsewe, has described Tekno’s display of semi-nude girls dancing in a transparent truck as “Jezebelistic and a sin against the Nigerian culture.”
According to Runsewe, Tekno’s action is unacceptable, hence he should be o set an example.
In a statement released by Runsewe, he said the act by the singer stands condemned and will be thoroughly investigated by the government, adding that the incident must be used to clamp down on promoters and influencers of strange entertainment from the ‘pit of hell.’
The statement in part:
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?”
