Personal life

Daniel was born on 15 August 1974 to Daniel Samper Pizano and Cecilia Ospina Cuéllar, the third child and only son; his older sisters are Juanita, and María Angélica. He is the nephew of Ernesto Samper Pizano, Colombia's former president, whose administration was marked by the biggest scandal in Colombia's political history.[3] Investigations performed by authorities in Colombia and the US demonstrated that the Cali Cartel, a criminal organization involved in drug trafficking, sponsored Samper's campaign to the presidency. In response to the scandal, the Department of State revoked Samper's visa to enter the US, a sanction that remains effective until now.[4] He identifies spiritually as an agnostic.[5]
