TEKNO DISQUALIFIED FROM THE HEADIES 'NEXT RATED' NOMINEES
Tekno, had lambasted the organisers for including him in the
“Next Rated” category. In an Instagram post made about a month
ago, he said “Next rated after how many years! Let’s be
honest pls”. Revered video producer, Clarence Peters, had also
criticised the awards. Clarence Peters poured his heart out
on Instagram, saying “In a year that these men gave us some
of the most amazing visual interpretations mainly Darey’s
“Pray for me” by @mexemania & Kiss Daniel’s
“Jombo” by @ajefilmswork works, respectfully, it breaks my heart
that The Headies don’t deem it fit to recognize their outstanding
work. “To my brothers: from Dir Q, to @adasacookey to
Frizzle&Bizzle, from Gambit to LA, from Matt Max to Avalon to
TOSIN IGHO, SESAN to MOE to MEJI etc …. We know what we put in. “Awards
don’t define us, WE DEFINE POPULAR CULTURE not just in Nigeria, but
across the continent, so I salute you all”. Prolific rapper, Yung6ix,
described the award as being ‘Tribalistic”. Organizers of the awards,
however, sent out a message to all aggrieved parties explaining
why some artistes were not included this year,blaming their exclusion on
non-submission of materials.
According to a document obtained by THE NETNG, the Headies
disqualified Tekno for not meeting requisite conditions for the
award. “Tekno has unfortunately not made himself available for any of
the mandatory activities, hence the committee’s decision to
effectively withdraw his nomination for this year”. The document also
added that the decision was irrevocable and final. The headies have
also released names of upcoming artistes who made it to the highly
sought after “Rookie of the year” category with Mayorkun, Dice Ailes,
Terry Apala, Mz. Kiss and Dremo competing for the award.

Are you an Agribusiness enthusiast? check out this incredible farming system called 'Rice-fish system'
This is simply the simultaneous cultivation of rice and culture of fish in the same pond. The relationship between the two is symbiotic, i.e. the fishes feed on insects harmful to rice whilst also adding to the soil nutrient with their droppings thereby, making sure there is no competition between plant and animal. The fishes may be stocked artificially or just from the natural aquatic environment.
