Overcome Ethnic Divisions and Unite for August Protest – DJ Switch

by Victor Ndubuisi
written by Victor Ndubuisi 2 minutes read

In advance of a scheduled nationwide demonstration, DJ Switch, also known as Catherine Udeh, has urged Nigerians to come together.

Switch asked Nigerians to get together and combat religious and ethnic divisions “planted by the political class” in an X Facebook post in an effort to quell the anticipated demonstration.

The activist claimed that until the people made the decision to save Nigeria, the political elite would keep mismanaging the economy of the nation.

She asserted that certain politicians endorsing the demonstration were merely doing so to make a statement and mislead the younger generation.

Switch said, “I was not going to speak on this issue because I’ve experienced first hand the cowardice of many Nigerians but my love for Nigeria is literally haunting me! So here it goes. They say that there is a time for everything,”

“A time to sleep, play, work, fight or die! Africa as a whole needs to know what f**king time it is! If you recognize what time it is, then you know what to do! Mind you, the cabals running Nigeria, Nigeria especially are smarter than you all might think.

“While they may be on edge about this planned protest, especially after seeing the events in Kenya, I promise you that they can bet their left balls that nothing will happen. That being said, many have been advised to “show” support for our fundamental human right to freedom of expression for two reasons.”

Switch highlights the importance of realising that they don’t care if you remain or you japa! These monsters have Nigeria as their mine. They just take and take, not giving a damn where the country ends up—a wasteland!.

She pointed out that the tribal split they’ve sowed among us was a last-ditch attempt to mend their shattered chessboard, which ought to have collapsed on its face, but some of us are so vile, self-centred, and shortsighted. They are prepared to sell their kids for that brown envelope.

Obianuju Catherine Udeh, also known as DJ Switch, a popular disc jockey, has expressed her outrage over the persecution of Igbo people in Lagos State.

In Lagos State, the Igbo were openly rejected and were publicly barred from voting in the presence of security agencies.

The singer and musician questioned why, out of all the tribes in Lagos State, the Igbo were chosen and subjected to rejection, abuse, and threats.

The gubernatorial election in Lagos State in 2023 was plagued by a high level of violence and intimidation.

Some of the attacks on voters and electoral materials occurred in full view of security officials.

Thugs were deployed before and during the elections to threaten, instill fear, and coerce locals to vote for a specific political party or not vote at all.

On social media, video clips of police personnel being compromised are circulating. The threat given to non-indigenes of Lagos by the State’s Parks Management Committee Chairman, Musiliu Akinsanya, commonly known as MC Oluomo, was even labeled as a joke by the police.

“I am really sorry to my Igbo brothers and sisters!” The Enugu-born DJ said.

Nigeria Political Elites Are ‘Devil’– DJ Switch Fumes

by Victor Ndubuisi
written by Victor Ndubuisi 1 minutes read

DJ Switch, a popular Nigerian disc jockey, has stated that the devil dwells in Nigeria and that the political elites are the devil.

The performer said in a series of Tweets that the ritualists people hear about are actually politicians who kill directly or through proxies to maintain power.

She emphasized that if politicians are allowed to kill individuals in order to acquire or retain power, it is a ritualistic sacrifice.

She bemoaned the fact that, despite their wicked deeds, this group of people believes that their children should have the finest lives possible after stealing money from the masses.

She wrote, “The Devil You know”

“Don’t look for the devil anywhere… they are in Nigeria, they are the majority of our political elites. The ritualists you hear about should be demystified by now because they are your political elites! You cannot tell me nothing…

“If it is okay for politicians to kill their citizens, either personally or through the security agencies or through thuggery to retain/gain/steal power then that is ritualistic sacrifice! If it is okay for politicians that are well travelled…

“And they believe their children should have the best education/vacation/medical attention while they siphon the people’s money to sponsor their personal lives and that of their families while the people suffer”

According to DJ Switch, the killings at Catholic churches in Owo and other areas of the country are political, with the suspect Fulani herdsmen engaged in such operations for political purposes.

She tweeted: “Scenes from the Ondo shooting is so devastating! I feel sick! Families woke up, went to worship and just died, for nothing! Nigeria is a failed experiment at this point! These killings are political in my view because why?”

Lekki TollGate Killings: Olunloyo Alleged DJ Switch Misled Nigerians With Her Report

by Victor Ndubuisi
written by Victor Ndubuisi 2 minutes read

Controversial journalist and blogger, Kemi Olunloyo has alleged that popular disc jockey, Catherine Udeh, professionally known as DJ Switch, misled Nigerians with her report on last year’s Lekki Toll Gate event.

Anaedoonline.ng recalls that DJ Switch gained the attention of Nigerians last year after she did a live video of protesters being shot by personnel of the Nigerian Army at the Lekki tollgate during the nationwide EndSARS protest.

The disc jockey has, however, allegedly fled the country since the event, claiming that the Federal Government of Nigeria is after her life.

Taking to her Facebook page on Thursday, December 2, Kemi Olunloyo said DJ Switch was not a Hero as had acted.

The investigative journalist mentioned in her post that DJ Switch should emulate the likes of CNN, EIE and Amnesty Nigeria in apologizing to Nigerians over her allegedly ‘misleading’ reportage.

Olunloyo, however, disclosed that she watched in another video how a female NTA reporter and her cameraman were caught in the crossfire about the time the army arrived.

According to her, she could not confirm from her investigation if the NTA staff were from Lagos or Abuja but that they were there that night to cover the nightly activities and were trapped at the scene.

Olunloyo wrote: “DJ Switch has misled the world because of her LIVE video where she was acting like a hero. SHE WAS NOT ONE. This may be why the Buhari government may be bragging that they will “disgrace and expose her soon” Unfortunately there was ANOTHER VIDEO I watched last November 2020 during my #IJLekkimassacre investigation. A female NTA Reporter and her cameraman caught in the crossfire about the time the army arrived 6:30pm October 20th 2020.

“His camera was videotaping DJ Switch and a lot of other things while they were ducking away from bullets. They had no idea what they captured. NTA is owned by the government. I didn’t know if the state sponsored network staff were from Lagos or Abuja but they were there that night to cover the nightly activities and were trapped at the scene. DJ Switch should apologize to Nigerians and the world like CNN, EIE and Amnesty Nigeria for their “massacre numbers” and propaganda.”

EndSARS Memorial: Lai Mohammed Mocks DJ Switch Over #LekkiTollGate Shooting

by Victor Ndubuisi
written by Victor Ndubuisi 3 minutes read

The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has alluded to activist disc jockey, Obianuju Catherine Udeh, alias DJ Switch, as run-away DJ after she told the world that EndSARS protesters were killed by soldiers.

Anaedoonline.ng reports that while addressing a press conference on the first anniversary of the EndSARS protest, the Minister averred that there was no massacre at the Lekki tollgate rendezvous of the protesters in Lagos.

The well-organized protest by trendy Nigerian youth and celebrities, which was against police brutality in the country, ended on a violent note after it was hijacked by hoodlums.

DJ Switch was among the leading lights of the protest as she was constantly at the Lekki toll plaza in Lagos, where protesters had their sit-out for weeks.

On the night when soldiers forcefully dispersed the protesters, DJ Switch was on ground to live-stream what happened at the venue on Instagram.

Many, who were not at the scene, including foreign and local journalists, relied on her account of the soldiers’ incursion.

In subsequent interviews she granted after the incident, DJ Switch said soldiers fired live bullets at protesters on October 20, 2020.

Her dauntless activism sparked reports that the authorities were after her, forcing her to flee abroad. However, DJ Switch would later deny going abroad, saying she only went underground but remained in Nigeria.

Briefing the media on Wednesday, Lai lumped DJ Switch among those who, according to him, lied against security operatives as pertains to what happened at the Lekki tollgate a year ago.

Although the Minister came short of mentioning DJ Switch, it was apparent that he was referring to her.

He insisted that no one was killed by security operatives, accusing Amnesty International, CNN, and “a runaway DJ” of spreading falsehood.

According to Mohammed, “The testimony of ballistic experts before the Judicial Panel of Inquiry in Lagos contradicts the tales by the moonlight by Amnesty International, CNN, a runaway DJ and their ilk.

“With the preponderance of evidence against any massacre at the Lekki Toll Gate on Oct. 20th 2020, we are once again reiterating what we said one year ago, that: The military did not shoot at protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate on Oct. 20th 2020, and there was no massacre at the toll gate.

“The only ‘massacre’ recorded was in the social media, hence there were neither bodies nor blood. Amnesty International, CNN, a runaway DJ and others like them should apologize for misleading the world that there was a massacre at the Lekki Toll Gate and for portraying the Nigerian military, police and other security agencies in bad light.”

Nigerian Military Obey Idiotic Orders Like Zombies — DJ Switch

by Victor Ndubuisi
written by Victor Ndubuisi 4 minutes read

Nigerian entertainer, Obianuju Catherine Udeh, popularly known as DJ Switch has likened Nigerian military personnel to zombies.

She stated this while referencing Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s 1977 hit song, Zombie, in which the late singer describes Nigerian soldiers as mindless zombies who follow idiotic orders.

In her speech at the Oslo Freedom Forum, the entertainer said youths are ready to stand up to the oppressors (Nigerian leaders) who are afraid of youths and have failed to create an enabling environment for them to thrive and contribute.

She lambasted Nigeria’s Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, who she described as one of the country’s ‘oppressors’.

She said: “As an artiste and a DJ, I listen to music a lot all the time and I am reminded of the legend — the artiste, Fela Anikulapo Kuti. He was known for speaking truth to power with his music and I am reminded of his 1977 song titled, Zombie.

“Here, Fela likens the Nigerian military to mindless zombies following idiotic orders. It was relevant then, it is relevant today and it is most likely relevant tomorrow, in the future.

“The same future that they say is in the hands of the leaders of tomorrow, but what we have tomorrow are recycled leaders of today who have failed to provide an enabling environment for young leaders to thrive and contribute. But they chose, instead to kill us all off one by one.

“This might sound outrageous to you and you might wonder why; I will tell you. Our leaders are afraid; it is as simple as that. They are afraid of a thinking, innovative, and collaborative working Nigeria. They are afraid of every young Nigerian who, against all odds, have made it for themselves.

“They are afraid of a ‘me’; the coconut head generation as we like to call ourselves. We are hard-headed, we are not easily deceived by propaganda. We stand up to our oppressors, starting with the Nigerian Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed.

“Yes, you heard me right. The Nigerian Minister for Information, our very own spin doctor, his first name is ‘Lie’. It is inevitable, right? The pun is begging me. ‘Lie’ called the shooting a fabrication of a massacre without bodies. He said I was a purveyor of fake news with an intent of tarnishing the nation’s image and I am a terrorist among other things.

“The Nigerian Army called the shooting fake and that I had made the whole thing up with a green screen. Yes, I have plans of going to Hollywood after this speech.”

DJ Switch gained prominence after doing a live video of the Lekki Toll Gate shooting last October.

At the time, many Nigerians took to the streets to demonstrate against police brutality under the #EndSARS campaign.

The protesters had called for the disbandment of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), a police unit notorious for extrajudicial killings, human rights abuses, and torture.

On October 20, 2020, the Nigerian military reportedly fired live rounds of bullets at the protesters which resulted in the death of some.

DJ Switch was later targeted by the Nigerian government, forcing her to flee the country.

The widespread protest is what is now known as #EndSARS protests.

According to her, she has been in a safe house for months and was never granted any asylum.

She also noted that she’s only just travelled, adding that it was not Canada as popular news outlets claimed.

DJ Switch stated that when issues/stories are not properly investigated, it turns back to hurt people in real life.

Her post reads; “To the people who know me so well, i don’t really share, except my craft, art comments on social issues that affect us all.

“But let me say this.. news outlets and bloggers, I know traffic is the game but when you don’t really investigate properly and run with things that you don’t know for sure or have verified, you sincerely hurt and in some cases cause serious complications for people in “Real Life”
