Nigerian Business man, Femi Otedola's daughter, DJ Cuppy is one female singer we respect because she's got good vocals and knows how to bring on her musical message. And for the fact that she isn't based in Nigeria, gives her an edge in knowing how to deliver international taste music which is excellent. So, all the respect girl.
But what is this we hear about her being made an ambassador for Tourism? The famous UK-based DJ shared the good news on her instagram page today. She shared the pics from the presentation on her page and wrote "On Behalf Of The Ministry Of Culture, Tourism, And National Orientation... I Am So Honoured and Proud To Be Officially Dressed As A Tourism Ambassador For The Federal Republic Of Nigeria ".Come on peeps, is this not another national flop for someone who doesn't even reside in Nigeria?Then we wonder where she's going to be operating from- abroad or she's going to finally move back home or is it just an honourary title not requiring her to do any work?
Oh yes, we agree she got the post on her father's name but then, does she know the nooks and crannies of Nigeria?
You will agree that most of the children raised in Nigeria are still struggling to know the history of Nigeria, its states and resorts not to talk of children raised and living outside the country. So, what does DJ Cuppy know about tourism in Nigeria?
Yes, some will say all she has to do is read up but how is it a fair play for other Nigerian based youths? We bet there are others who can bit her hands down when it comes to who knows what and not who knows who.
How about such post being given out on merit? Or does she just take visitors around by looking pretty and posing for pictures without saying something rich, deeply rooted and meaningful?
No mean words and in fact, we are happy on how much her father has impacted into the lives of Nigerians through job creation but, that's her father.
Did you just say that's one of the ways of repaying her father's hard work towards building the country's economy. But we say her father has already recouped more than enough on his investment. Otedola is one of the people on whose hands the Nigerian economy rests and he's part of the few "rich getting richer". So when will the Nigerian leaders learn to spread the national cake even to the children of the masses?
