Popular singer and disc jockey, Florence Otedola better known as DJ Cuppy has finally carried her threat to file a lawsuit against Davido’s aide, Isreal Afeare over his “defamatory statement”.
Cuppy’s lawyers, Babajide Koku & Co., have written Afeare demanding he makes a public apology over his libellous statements against their client.
Recall that last month, Davido’s personal logistic manager, Isreal DMW, via an Instagram post alleged that despite the commercial success of 2019 hit song, Gelato by the two artists, the disc jockey did not compensate Zlatan.
The man said this was the reason for the fallout between Zlatan and DJ Cuppy.
He also claimed that Cuppy took the singer to Abuja for her fund raising where she made billions of Naira but refused to remunerate Zlatan.

Kudos to someone like Zlatan, who took a bold step by flushing a full fake friend like Cuppy who was just using his head all in the name of my papa na Otedola. Zlatan did a hit collabo with her, ordinary one kobo, he no see. She also took Zlatan to Abuja for her fundraising where she made billions of naira and didn’t even remember Zee for one kobo until tomorrow. No accommodation, no feeding. Zlatan had to even spend his own personal money at Transcorp Hilton to carter for everyone including me. Dis na 2021 abeg.
In response to his allegations, DJ Cuppy said she did not breach any contractual agreement regarding the song Gelato, which she made with Zlatan Ibile.
She went ahead and threatened to sue him for libel and defamation.
