Speaking about how they met, Hyenena shared that he used to attend the same church as the Otedola’s and had met them several times.

How Hyenana got job with DJ Cuppy

One day, he walked up to DJ Cuppy and sold himself to her; thankfully, she liked him, and he began working with her.

However, it reached a point where DJ Cuppy, who was recently baptised, was focused on her disc jockey career and stopped ‘carrying him’ along.

He also noted that he asked his best friend to stand in for him at some point, but he never got called back to his job.

Nonetheless, the comedian shared that he was utterly grateful for the opportunity to work with such a pleasant family.
