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.
Nigerian pastor Dolapo Lawal spoke on the reality of living abroad and what people do not see online.
He shared the insight that many Nigerians who relocate to other countries mainly move there for survival and not necessarily for wealth.
“How many people you know that are in the UK who are billionaires? They go there to survive. They don’t go there to be rich. All of them are going there to do care jobs. They’re going there to survive.”
He then shared that it is better to be a billionaire in Nigeria and stated that success can sometimes come easier at home than relocating abroad.
Sandra has spoken out and broken her silence on the alleged affair involving Chike. She shared that she was faithful throughout her marriage and claimed that only Frank Edoho cheated.
Sandra revealed that Frank allegedly cheated multiple times and even claimed that a particular woman was frequently seen around their home, stating that he was definitely involved with her.
She also stated that she has evidence against Frank, including receipts from hotels and places where he allegedly met with his dates.
Popular singer Shakira and Nigerian singer Burna Boy have reportedly released “Daidia,” a song linked to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It was also noted that the two artists are expected to perform during the event, and the song for the occasion has now been released.
This will not be the first time Shakira will perform for the World Cup. Whenever her name is mentioned, many people remember “Waka Waka,” the iconic World Cup song released for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is scheduled to take place from June 11, 2026, to July 19, 2026, across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Many fans are already excited and cannot wait to see the live performance on the big stage.
