In her heartfelt post, DJ Cuppy, whose real name is Ifeoluwa Otedola, praised her father for the unconventional upbringing that she believes has equipped her with a mindset often associated with masculinity.

Others, however, expressed confusion and concern, questioning the implications of her statement and what exactly she meant by being raised as a ‘Modern-Day Man.’
One user, HIBILLIONEAR, commented, “Raised you to be a man? Who is a man? I am hoping this isn’t why you have been having challenges with your relationships. I wish you all the best in all ramifications of life.”
