Nigerian singer Kelechi Austin Miles, known as Tekno, has refuted claims that he received N1 billion in royalties from his collaboration with Kizz Daniel on the song ‘Buga.’
A blog called Budget TV alleged on X that Tekno revealed Kizz Daniel sends him 50% of ‘Buga’ revenues monthly.
They further claimed that Tekno said he had received nearly a billion Naira from Kizz Daniel as royalties for the song.
The blog wrote: “I joined Kizz Daniel on ‘Buga’ without a legal agreement and wasn’t expecting anything. I wanted to stay quiet, but Kizz Daniel deserves credit for sending me 50% of all revenue from the song. After his ‘Buga’ tour, he sent me close to a billion Naira. Now I receive millions monthly as my share of the revenue. Kizz is a great guy. ~ Tekno Reveals’.”
In response, Tekno dismissed the interview as “fake.”
On his X handle, he stated: “His money doesn’t even reach. Anyone spreading that fake interview, may thunder strike your mother. #Talkingshit.”
