Famous Nigerian female Disc Jockey – Florence Otedola aka DJ Cuppy – has said her inability to say ‘no’ often led to her worst 2023 experience among other years.
The daughter of billionaire businessman Femi Otedola particularly regretted her failure to say “No” to her estranged fiancé, Ryan Taylor, at the time he approached her
Speaking at a recent function abroad, DJ Cuppy said she has now realised that it’s okay to say “No.”
She said: “One of the things I have learned is saying no. I had one of the worst years of my life last year because I couldn’t say no. I didn’t say no to opportunities that I should have said no to. I didn’t say no to a fiancé I should’ve said no to. I didn’t say no to taking things on.
“I was at the BBC; I had a morning breakfast show, then I was DJing, I was planning a wedding, I was in Oxford University. I burnt myself out. And none of us are either good to ourselves or other people when we burnt out. So, we have to deal with that guilt that comes with saying no. It’s okay to say no.” DJ Cuppy and Ryan parted ways in July 2023 barely seven months after their shocking engagement in November 2022.
