DJ Switch Acting Out A Script Written By Divisive Forces – Lai Mohammed

NOVEMBER 19, 2020

The Federal Government has accused Obianuju Catherine Udeh, better known as DJ Switch of being “a fraud and a front for divisive and destructive forces’’ that will be exposed in due course.

Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, while speaking at a media briefing on Thursday, denied that the celebrity who has since sought asylum in Canada was in any danger, adding that the police and military never declared her wanted.

He said she was one of the peddlers of fake news and suggested that she may be acting out a script written by other people.

“Even when she claimed to have authentic evidence of mass killings, surprisingly, instead of presenting whatever evidence she may have to the judicial panel of inquiry into the protest, she chose to escape from the country under the pretext that her life was in danger.

“I ask: in danger from whom? The military has come out to say they never sought after her.

“To the best of our knowledge, the police never declared her wanted.

“Her conduct thus becomes suspect. Who is she fronting for?

“What is her real motive? Who are her sponsors? If she has any evidence of killings, why is she not presenting it to the panel?

“If she was so desperate for asylum in any country, does she have to resort to blatant falsehood to tarnish the image of the country just to achieve her aim?” he said.

DJ Switch had, through her Instagram Live, said the Nigerian military shot at unarmed #EndSARS protesters in Lekki on October 20, while the government has vehemently denied the allegations.
