Read the X post below:
Legit.ng reported that DJ Cuppy earlier shared her excitement after her younger sister, Temi Otedola, announced she was expecting her first child with singer Mr Eazi.
Temi and Mr Eazi had earlier left social media buzzing after unveiling beautiful maternity photos from their white-themed pregnancy shoot.
The celebrity couple shared the heartwarming announcement through a joint Instagram post, where Temi accompanied the photos with a touching Bible verse.
“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, before you were born I set you apart,” she wrote.
Shortly after the announcement went viral, DJ Cuppy also joined in celebrating the good news.
Taking to her official X page, Cuppy expressed excitement over becoming an aunt for the first time.
“My sister @TemiOtedola is pregnant. I’m going to be an Aunty,” she wrote excitedly.
Earlier, Temi Otedola shared what she struggles with most in her marriage with Mr Eazi. In a recent podcast, the actress revealed how she and her husband resolve issues amicably without confrontations.
The billionaire heiress, however, noted that it was a pattern set by her husband, as she is finding it hard to adjust to it.
In her words: “I’m minding my business doing my email, and I just get this scroll of a message saying everything he’s upset about me, my body was already becoming hot at some point, I can’t even read because I’m so angry.”
"English is our second language": Submittulahi ibn, social commentator
Badassirudeen Submittulahi ibn Abu, a social commentator, weighed in on whether occasional grammar mistakes can be used as a measure of someone's intelligence or education.
"English, despite being our official language, is still a second language for 99% of Nigerians. A "blunder" or mistake in grammar in English by a Nigerian is not a measure of his/her intelligence. Where a poor grasp of grammar can be telling about one's level of education, it still doesn't speak to their intelligence. In this particular case, making a fuss over a tweet is just ridiculous."

"She isn't tweeting for perfection. Anyway, you did a simple correction, but you have to understand that sometimes people tweet with so much excitement that they won't even check if they made mistakes or not."

"Cuppy wey just dey rage bait dey go. 😂"
@wtfisAk_ said:
"But if we’re being real… this grammar error shouldn’t even be coming from such a person. She attended top schools, and I still don’t understand how she still made this error."
@ThatsammyB said:
"I never thought I would see the day a poor man would be able to have a better understanding than a rich woman who went to Oxford. It says a lot about how the standard of England has fallen. What a shame!"
