Florence Otedola, aka DJ Cuppy, has disclosed that she feeds approximately 70,000 children on a daily basis in Borno State through the Cuppy Foundation.
The billionaire heiress stated this on Friday, while speaking on her appointment by the Lagos State Government as one of the ambassadors of the Lagos SDGs Youth Alliance network.
DJ Cuppy said, “On a daily basis, we feed about 70,000 children in Borno State and this is something that I do because I believe in tomorrow’s leaders. So, I’m not here as a celebrity but a humanitarian.”
The 28-year-old disc jockey urged youths to accept the platform initiated by state government, saying it would create opportunities for entrepreneurship, leadership, and mentorship.
“This project is about asking young people what our struggles are. Youth will also be able to give feedback on how they think the government is doing and how they can improve.
“As we all know that young people are tomorrow’s leaders. I want to use this platform to encourage young people that education is great and knowledge is power,” she said.
