DJ Cuppy speaks about her passion for Nigeria [video]

DJ Cuppy is very passionate about Nigeria, and it reflects in the way she dresses and her music philosophy.

Two days before the first leg of her Africa tour 'Cuppy Takes Africa', she granted Pulse TV an exclusive interview. In the interview she spoke about her deep passion for Nigeria.

"A lot of people are surprised when they see how passionate I am about about Nigerian culture, even in the way I dress. And I think that I am an advocate for the country outside of Nigeria. I am very passionate about getting myself involved [in] representing the country outside as well. A lot of people question that. I think that right now in Nigeria we are going through a very difficult time where a lot of people are losing faith in the country" said DJ Cuppy.

"I think it is fantastic that we have a new...we've had a very smooth, peaceful transition of democracy. Personally it is a great time to be a Nigerian, such amazing times ahead, very unpredictable. And I think it is time for a new generation to come through and take what's theirs" she further said.

In 2014 DJ Cuppy was made Nigerian Tourism ambassador. After Nigeria, DJ Cuppy's tour will hit Senegal, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda and South Africa.

On Saturday, August 1, 2015 DJ Cuppy kicked off her Africa tour in Lagos at the the Federal Palace Hotel. Prominent guests who showed up at the event were Aliko Dangote and her father Femi Otedola.
