Nigerian DJ, Cuppy has been slammed by Nigerians on Twitter after she spoke about her views on feminism.
In an interview on City FM, DJ Cuppy said: “I used to consider myself a feminist until I realised that I did not really understand it. I don’t like people who are hypocrites, right? You know people are out there speaking about women rights, but behind closed doors are doing crazy things.
“I will never come out as a feminist because I am in a male-dominated industry, so I have certain scenarios, where I have to, I don’t really have to, water myself down. I deal with men on a daily basis and I realise that they will always think that they are better than women.”
Her views on feminism has been criticised by Nigerians on social media.
