#YOURLOVETHEVIDEO! Nigerian model blasts Tekno Miles, says singer discriminated against her because she’s black
A lady has slammed a Nigerian singer and songwriter, Augustine Miles Kelechi, popularly known by his stage name Tekno Miles, for allegedly discriminating against her because of her black skin.
The lady, who posted her experience with the 25-year-old musician on her Instagram handle @quinbeee, described her self as a model.
She said a music director, Paul Gambit, had invited her to do a shoot with Tekno but he refused to feature her as the main model because of her skin colour.
She said Tekno offered a minor role that she rejected.
She wrote,
“I had the worst experience today as a darkskin model, I woke up at 4am, got to Oregun on the mainland at 8am, and waited for the director @paul_gambit whom i respect a lot. Anyways to cut the story short, after all my stress, Tekno arrived on set, it was time to shoot with him. Tekno refused to use me as the main model for his #yourlovethevideo shoot cause i’m dark skin. Later he settled for me doing the full shots so a light skin model can do the closeup shots with him. But i walked out on him and his set. Dark skin women are beautiful and precious, we don’t settle for less and we don’t get to be an option, we are the option. Black girls please love your skin and never feel bad about rejection, If a Tekno rejects you, Look up to a Wizkid, Wizkid inspires me everyday to love my skin with his videos and how much he appreciates black women…
