BREAKING! Tekno To Be JAILED For TWO YEARS For Publicly Dancing With Strippers
Nigerian musician, Augustine Kelechi, popularly known as Tekno and four others may be prosecuted and sentenced to two years imprisonment for shooting a music video publicly with strippers dancing seductively in a truck, Punch reports.
On Friday, August 2, 2019, Tekno was seen around the Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge in Lagos, dancing with the semi-clad women, spraying them with money and spanking their buttocks. The actcontravenes Section 136 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
The section provides that “any person who commits any act of gross indecency with another person in public commits an offense and liable to a conviction to three years imprisonment”. Section 134 (a) further states that “an indecent act in a public place makes both parties engaging in the act liable to imprisonment for two years”.
Meanwhile, the Lagos State Signage and Advertising Agency, LASSAA has suspended the license of Provision Media System Limited, the advertising agency, whose display truck was used to shoot the video.
In a statement signed by its Chief Executive Officer, Mobolaji Sanusi, the agency said the suspension of the ad agency would subsist until the completion of the investigation.
The statement reads in part:
“The Lagos State Signage and Advertisement Agency has suspended, pending final investigation, the practicing license of an advertising firm, Provision Media System Limited, over indecent advertisement around the Lekki/Ikoyi toll gate.”
LASSAA also accused the advertising agency of using unregistered mobile advertising truck with no valid registration “illegally deployed in engaging in abysmally debasing projection of semi-nude women for several hours around the Lekki/Ikoyi toll gate.”
