Florence Otedola, popularly known as DJ Cuppy has made history at the 74th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). She became the first Nigerian to host an opening session at this prestigious event.

During her opening remarks, Cuppy introduced herself in her signature style: “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. But it feels like I’m more your co-host because today is all about you. It’s all about you.”

DJ Cuppy’s presence at the UNGA was not just symbolic but was a powerful statement about the importance of youth leadership as she moderated the “Youth Action Day” session, themed “The Summit of the Future Youth Action Day.” Her dynamic energy and engaging style captivated the audience. She emphasized the critical role of young people in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.

DJ Cuppy’s historic role at the UNGA underscored the importance of youth involvement in global issues. She highlighted her passion for education, stating, “My favourite Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) is definitely 4: ‘Opportunity for Everyone to Get Quality Education.’ At my foundation, the Cuppy Foundation, I’m so proud because we provide funds for African students. So throughout today, this opening ceremony, I’d love you to get involved in the conversation.”

Her ability to connect with the audience was evident. She led the Assembly in a chant, igniting a sense of unity among the attendees. This moment was a testament to her influence and the power of youth voices in international forums.

After me,” sending the audience into laughter. This playful exchange highlighted the rising tide of female leadership in Nigeria and across the world.
