Nigerian Artiste DJ Cuppy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Nigerian disc jockey, Florence Otedola popularly known as DJ Cuppy, says her wedding ceremony would be less stressful while addressing her father, Femi Otedola at the very first-ever Gold Gala for Cuppy Foundation.<\/p>\n

The charity event held in Abuja to raise funds for the advancement of children-related humanitarian causes in north-eastern Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Speaking during her address at the event, the entertainer thanked Yemi Osinbajo, vice-president, her father and all those in attendance.<\/p>\n

Read statement below<\/h4>\n

\u201cThis is a very emotional night for me. It gives me great pleasure to welcome all of you to the first-ever Gold Gala hosted by the Cuppy Foundation. 26-year-old, soon to be 27-year-old me, I\u2019m so humbled that you\u2019ve taken time out from your busy schedules. People have flown from around the world and the country and I\u2019m so grateful,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI stand before you in my capacity as an ambassador for Save the Children. But, most of all, a daughter; a sister; a friend and a performing artiste to most of you. While many know me as DJ Cuppy, the Gelato Fanatic, I stand before you today as a young philanthropist with a big vision for our country Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d like to thank his excellency the vice president for joining us tonight. Your presence has already made this a very special night for me. I pray you\u2019ll stay and enjoy some Gelato, sir. To Mr Otedola, the Gelato King himself, don\u2019t worry. My wedding would be much smaller and less stressful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking further, she said, \u201cI founded this Cuppy Foundation as a way of giving back to children. As many of you know, I\u2019m very passionate about what I do. And, through this foundation, I have contributed to many Nigerians; those with disabilities, visiting places around the country. I have also supported children through music,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\u201cSave the Children has exposed me to a world I never imagined. However, nothing prepared me for my recent visit. I was able to visit Save the Children\u2019s work in Maiduguri, Bornu State. At their stabilization centre, the first child I met in the hospital was only two years old. She was so malnourished that she needed a blood transfusion.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter then, I met more and more sick children dying, including a 16-year-old mother who was also malnourished. Because of how serious this problem is, I was told that I was only meeting the lucky few who were able to make it the medical centre. My heart broke and it\u2019s still broken as I stand.<\/p>\n

\u201cEver since that visit, my determination to save Nigerian children has grown. I have committed my time, my strength and my passion for this Gold Gala to help Nigerian children. I beg you all to join us in supporting the Save the Children cause. A quick note to all of you, I\u2019m happy to add extra zeros to any amount you want to donate.\u201d<\/p>\n

VP Yemi Osinbajo, Aliko Dangote, Billionaire businessman, Bukola Saraki, former senate president; Adams Oshiomole, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC); and Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos state governor, and Dapo Abiodun, Ogun state governor were among those present at the event.<\/p>\n
