During a Sunday sermon, popular Zimbabwean gospel minister Uebert Angel recently expressed his distaste for Afrobeat music, using Tekno as an example.
He noted that there are several Afrobeat songs one would listen to that should make one query their content and if they’re good songs for Christian minds to consume.
Uebert buttressed his point by picking one of Tekno’s songs, Pana, citing a lyric from the track and querying the use of “big casava” as a metaphor for his reproductive organ.
The clergyman added that people in Zimbabwe always sing along to Nigerian songs without knowing the meaning of some of their lyrics which is toxic for their minds and consciousness as Christians.
