Nigerian disc jockey and singer Florence Otedola, popularly known as DJ Cuppy, has revealed that she is considering stepping away from social media and moving to the countryside for a quieter lifestyle. The entertainer shared the thought on her X account on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, alongside a photograph of herself looking into the distance as she reflected on the possibility of leaving her highly visible online life behind.

 

Cuppy wrote that she was still thinking about deleting her social media accounts, relocating to the countryside and buying three goats, presenting the idea in a light-hearted manner. She also previously joked about running away to a small village and staying away from public attention. Her latest comments, however, have renewed attention around her desire for a simpler and more private lifestyle away from the constant activity and scrutiny that come with being active on social media.

 

The DJ has maintained a significant presence across several social media platforms, where she regularly shares updates about her music, personal experiences, faith, relationships and other aspects of her life. According to TVC News, she currently has about 8.3 million followers on Instagram, 6.9 million on X and 4.3 million on Facebook. Her online visibility has also made her a frequent subject of public commentary and trolling, which has contributed to her reflections about taking a step back from social media.

 

This is not the first time Cuppy has taken steps towards reducing her online presence. In January 2026, she announced that she was taking a temporary break from social media because she wanted some quiet time to reset and reconnect with herself and God. She began a 21-day fast during the period and later returned to social media on February 9. Her latest comments indicate that she is again thinking about spending more time away from the digital space, although she has not announced any definite plan to delete her accounts or relocate.

 

Cuppy has not stated that she has made a final decision to leave social media or move permanently to the countryside. For now, her comments appear to reflect a desire for greater peace, privacy and a simpler environment away from the pressures of public life. The idea of living in the countryside with three goats has also drawn attention because of the contrast between the quiet lifestyle she described and her current life as a globally recognised entertainer with millions of social media followers.
