Tekno Reveals Acid Reflux Damaged His Voice and Sparked 'Lazy' Labels

Tekno Reveals Acid Reflux Damaged His Voice and Sparked 'Lazy' Labels

Nigerian star Tekno has opened up about the health struggle behind his sudden music break. In a chat with Cool FM, he disclosed that severe acid reflux severely harmed his vocal cords. The damage robbed him of his ability to sing for months. Friends and family misunderstood his absence and branded him “lazy,” leaving him in a dark place. Even after his voice recovered, he faced emotional scars. Tekno says he had to deliberately work through the stigma before he could enjoy music again and honour his deal with Universal.

I wonder if fans deciding so quickly that Tekno was lazy should have paused to consider his health story first.
