DJ Cuppy Applauds Namibia for Making History with Female President and VP
Nigerian disc jockey and philanthropist, Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola, popularly known as DJ Cuppy, recently took to her X (formerly Twitter) handle to celebrate Namibia’s groundbreaking achievement:
“Namibia just made history. Africa’s FIRST country with BOTH a female President AND female Vice President. Maybe there’s hope for Nigeria one day after all…”
This milestone marks a significant step towards gender equality in African politics.
On March 21, 2025, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah was inaugurated as Namibia’s first female president, coinciding with the nation’s 35th independence anniversary. At 72, Nandi-Ndaitwah brings decades of experience from her tenure in the South West Africa People’s Organization (SWAPO) and various governmental roles, including foreign minister. During her inauguration, she emphasized commitments to good governance, regional cooperation, and addressing climate change.
In a move underscoring her dedication to gender inclusivity, President Nandi-Ndaitwah appointed Lucia Witbooi as Vice President. This appointment makes Namibia the only African nation where both the president and vice president are women.
Additionally, Nandi-Ndaitwah’s cabinet includes nine women in key ministerial positions, reflecting a broader commitment to gender equality in governance.
DJ Cuppy, beyond her musical achievements, is a vocal advocate for youth empowerment and gender equality. In September 2024, she made history as the first Nigerian to host an opening session at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), where she moderated the Youth Action Day themed “The Summit of the Future – Youth Actions Day.”
During this event, she hinted at aspirations of becoming Nigeria’s first female president, a sentiment met with encouragement from UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed.
Babcock University makes headlines as it speaks regarding content creator Carter Efe, who claimed that he studied at the school and graduated with a first-class degree.
When asked for proof, he shared a certificate that stated “First Class Upper.” However, the university has now spoken out, stating that the certificate is not from the school and is forged.
“Babcock University does not issue ‘Honorary Certificates’ in recognition of undergraduate academic performance. Academic excellence, including the award of First Class Honours, is formally recognized only through the University’s official degree certificate and academic transcript issued by the Office of the Registrar.”
“There is no academic classification or degree known to Babcock University as ‘First Class Upper.’ The recognized classification is First Class Honours.”

Nigerian singer Ycee reacts to the criticism and ongoing conversation surrounding his comments about the “Olodo uprising.”
He reacted to the fact that he received backlash for using Peller as an example. “Some people are saying I shouldn’t have called Peller’s name, but I said what I said. If you feel offended, you should check yourself. A lot of people are also taking what I said out of context. The olodo uprising is even worse than I thought because there are so many people coming out to defend it.”
“My call is to people that are tired of brain-rot content. There is no reason why intelligent people cannot be streamers or content creators.”
