About this person

Teniola Apata was born on 23 December 1993. She took the stage name Teni - later stretched to Teni the Entertainer - and carved out space as a singer and songwriter in Nigeria. The professional alias became both identity and expectation, a compact pledge that what you'd get wasn't just songs but a full show. The work that followed turned the nickname into fact.
