Popular disc jockey, Obianuju Catherine Udeh, commonly known as DJ Switch, is safe and out of Nigeria according to reports by the personal assistant to musician, Peter Okoye, Charles Abi.

DJ Switch, who broadcasted live on Instagram her ordeal at the #LekkiMassacre as she removed bullets from peaceful protesters who were shot at Lekki Toll Gate on October 20, 2020, has said she received threats from different quarters for that.

In 2017, singer, Peter Okoye signed DJ Switch to become his disc jockey and in October 23, 2020, Peter Okoye was one of the few people that DJ Switch thanked via her most recent post on Instagram which said; “I want to thank a few people who, at the risk of their lives, came to get me. My life was being threatened for speaking up.”

However, earlier today, reports went round that the disc jockey sought out asylum in Canada and that she narrated her ordeal at the Sub-committee on International Human Rights of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development of the Canadian parliament.

 Charles Abi while confirming that the disc jockey was safe and had travelled out of Nigeria, did not disclose where DJ Switch is residing.

He said, “We do not want to say anything at the moment and that is the truth. This is a matter of threat and we do not want to say anything at the moment. She had been getting a lot of threats and the truth is that she is not even in Nigeria at the moment and she is safe. We will not want to answer whether she is in Canada for now but she is not in the country and she is safe.

“I cannot tell you if DJ Switch testified at a Canadian parliament, but if you see that the Canadian parliament posted it, then she probably did it. I know that she has not posted anything and I remember that my boss told her not to post anything; but in due time, she will speak out.

“She got threats from every angle; she received death threats from every angle; so, she just had to leave. I am just going to say this because of her safety, we just have to keep things quiet low.”

Abi, also revealed that his boss, Mr P has received threats as well.
