In an interview with Saturday Beats, Iyanya asked if he is envious of Tekno’s success, the singer simply smiled and said he had always believed Tekno whom he dubbed βGolden boyβ would succeed in life.
He said,
I am so happy for Tekno and his success and I am not surprised. At a point, we were all together and this is a young guy that works very hard. He worked every night and when we woke up in the morning, he would still be working.
So, I am not surprised that he has finally made it. I believe this is just the beginning and there are many more things to come his way. When he came to Triple MG, he sprayed his hair gold and anytime I wanted to call him, I referred to him as golden boy. I am very happy he is doing great things.
How would I be envious of somebody that Ubi Franklin and I raised from our platform? We used our platform to promote him and I cannot be envious of him; there is no need for that. People would always try to say negative things but we are very fine.
Iyanya is known for his signature dance moves especially which include whining his waist seductively, a gesture that endears him to women. When the singer was asked whether he has stopped, he simply said that he still does that.
I have not reduced the way I whine my waist. If you watch my shows and my new video you would realise that I have not reduced the way I whine my waist. I still entertain people especially the ladies with my sexy dance moves
he said.
