Nigerian singer and DJ, Florence Otedola, known as DJ Cuppy, has made history as the first British-Nigerian to host an opening session at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).
DJ Cuppy, who is the daughter of Nigerian billionaire Femi Otedola, hosted the session called “The Summit of the Future – Youth Action Day” over the weekend. This event marks a major step in her career.
She excited the audience with her opening speech, introducing herself in her usual energetic way.
“My name is Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola, but you can call me Cuppy. I’m repping a country called Nigeria, in case you’ve heard of it. I’m a DJ, philanthropist, but also your moderator,” she said.
Cuppy highlighted the importance of young people taking action and working together, saying, “It’s all about you. Now, someone once told me, it’s not about your ‘what’, but it’s about your ‘why’. So why are we here? We believe that youth need to be able to take action.”
