Florence Otedola, often known as DJ Cuppy, a singer and music jockey, has revealed the reason her father, Femi Otedola, spent millions of pounds to rent a luxurious yacht in advance of his 60th birthday.
Recently, the Billionaire businessman set the internet on fire after it was claimed that he spent over N2.2 billion to rent the ultra luxury yacht Christina O, which belonged to Aristotle Onassis and will sail for three weeks in the Mediterranean Sea.
As Otedola was counting down the days until his big celebration, he posted a series of images to his Instagram profile that showcased different times he had spent with his family.
Cuppy revealed on her Instagram page the good times she had with Temi Otedola, Mr. Eazi, and other family members while celebrating her father’s birthday aboard a luxury yacht. She was talking about the party that was held in honor of her father.
She claims that when her father was a little boy, he had a recurring fantasy to visit the famous 99-meter super-yacht CHRISTINA O since it was owned by Aristotle Onassis, the man who served as his inspiration.
The performer continued by encouraging her audience to go for their ambitions and reiterating that she is pleased to see that her father was successful in achieving his objectives.
She had written;
“My father @FemiOtedola always dreamt as a little boy to visit the iconic 99m super-yacht CHRISTINA O because it was owned by his (and my) role model Aristotle Onassis ⛴🇬🇷
“To celebrate his 60th, not only did he visit the yacht, but has chartered it for his loved ones so we can live here for the next 3 weeks! 🛳⚓️ Looking at my father I can see how happy, accomplished, and still in disbelief he is. This is what love looks like ❤️ #FamilyFirst
“Chase your dreams, you never know.”
The Christina O is widely considered to be one of the most iconic motor yachts that has ever been built. She is particularly famous for her magnificent interiors and an unparalleled degree of opulent amenities.
In 1954, Onassis purchased the yacht, gave her the name Christina after his daughter, and then proceeded to make her into the most magnificent private yacht available at the time.
The boat has hosted a number of notable guests throughout the years, including Winston Churchill, Prince Rainer and Princess Grace, and Franklin Roosevelt Jr.
The Christina O includes 17 staterooms, a dining area that can seat forty people, a hot tub, piano, and a swimming pool that can be covered and changed into a dance floor for a hefty weekly charter fee of six figures. In addition, the Christina O has a piano.
