Some Nigerians have taken to Twitter to condemn popular music artiste, Teni for insulting an American man in Yoruba language in a video that has since gone viral.
Teni, who is currently in California, had requested the addresses of American music stars P.Diddy, Chris Brown, Kanye West and reality stars, the Kardashians from a random American but called the fellow “unfortunate” and “stupid” when he appeared unable to help.
Watch the video:
Teni is taking some heat for this clip – What do you think?

However, some commentators queried Teni’s reasons for using expletives on an innocent fellow.

I love Teni, but cursing someone because they don't understand your language isn't good enough. You can be funny without using curse words. Let's be honest.

But the artiste later went on Twitter to react to the bashing, saying her action was never meant to insult the white man.
According to her, she uses similar expletives in conversations with her friends and they never take offence.
She tweeted:
My friends and I greet ourselves like, weyrey how far? Ode I don miss you oh. We love eetttt.
