Nigerian Disc Jockey and philanthropist Florence Otedola, popularly known as DJ Cuppy, has expressed hope about the possibility of Nigeria electing a female president in the future.
Cuppy had said this in a tweet while reacting to Namibia’s historic milestone as the first African country to have a female President and a female Vice President.
Namibia’s achievement has been widely praised as a progressive step towards gender equality around the world, with many including Cuppy hoping that Nigeria will follow suit and give leadership at the highest level to a woman.
Her tweet read;
“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…”
Her statement has since sparked a debate from internet users, with the majority discussing the role of women in Nigerian politics.
