Tekno apologises for dancing publicly with half naked women in Lagos

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”.

It's been reported that the act could earn the singer two years imprisonment.

However, Tekno has taken to his Instagram to his Instagram to tender an unreserved apology to everyone, who felt offended by the video. 

He explained that he was shooting a music video and when some vehicles broke down, he had to move some people into the truck to the next location.
