Viral Video Misidentifies Kenyan Rapper as Tekno
A viral video circulating on Nigerian social media has sparked widespread concern after showing a singer collapsing on stage during a performance. Rumours quickly spread that the singer in the video was Tekno, a popular Nigerian musician.
However, these concerns were quickly dispelled by Mr. Eazi, the owner of Tekno’s record label. In a tweet, Mr. Eazi clarified that the singer in the video was not Tekno. Reports indicate that the artist in the viral video was identified as a Kenyan rapper Prezzo.
Mr. Eazi noted that Tekno is currently in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, and not in South Africa as the video had suggested.
Lmao Tekno wey dey Malabo

With the air now cleared, fans can be assured that Tekno is safe and that the rumours circulating online were based on a case of mistaken identity.
