British-Nigerian DJ Florence Otedola, known as DJ Cuppy, has officially endorsed the Labour Party for the upcoming general election in the United Kingdom. The 30-year-old music star urged her UK followers to support the opposition party in the pivotal election scheduled for Thursday.
DJ Cuppy, who has generally avoided overt political endorsements, explained her decision to back Labour by emphasizing the need for change in the current political climate. “Sometimes a change is necessary,” she said, advocating for voters to use their voices to make a difference.
In a social media post, DJ Cuppy shared photos of herself holding a ‘Vote Labour’ placard and encouraged her fans to participate in the election. “While it’s unlike me to pick a side (and yes, no political party is perfect), sometimes a CHANGE is necessary! …In the UK, your voice actually matters, so GET INVOLVED this Thursday!” she wrote on X (formerly Twitter), using the hashtags #CuppyDat, #GeneralElection2024, and #GE2024.
The 2024 UK general election will decide the composition of the House of Commons, which in turn determines the government of the United Kingdom.
