DJ Switch Calls Nigerian Youths to Action for August Protest

Nigerian disc jockey, Obianuju Catherine Udeh, widely known as DJ Switch, has called on Nigerian youths to view the upcoming nationwide protest, scheduled for August 1-10, as a critical opportunity to salvage the nation.

DJ Switch, a prominent figure in the 2020 #EndSARS protest, has once again appealed for unity among Nigerian youths, urging them to reject the ethnic divisions that political leaders are fostering to undermine the planned “End Bad Governance in Nigeria” protest.

She emphasized that the political elite would continue to mismanage Nigeria’s economy unless citizens take decisive action to save their country. She also warned that some politicians backing the protest were merely posturing for their records and attempting to deceive the youth.

In a message posted on her X page on Thursday, DJ Switch confessed that she had intended to remain silent about the protest, but her deep-seated passion for Nigeria compelled her to speak out.

She stated: “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 time it is!

“If you recognize what time it is, then you know what to do! Mind you, the cabals running Nigeria 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,”

Many people have been encouraged to publicly support our fundamental human right to freedom of expression for two reasons: to create a record of their support and to guide you all like babies to protest and then go home.

“So, the question really is this, do you know what time it is? Because if you don’t, just kukuma go and sleep and If you do, then prepare to take the bull by the horns.

“You need to understand that whether you japa or stay, they don’t care! Nigeria is a mining ground for these devils. They take and take with no single thought or care as to where the nation ends up… wasteland!”

She urged Nigerians to resist the ethnic divisions orchestrated by the political class to weaken their resolve for the planned August protest.

DJ Switch concluded: “The tribal division they’ve sown amongst us was a desperate move on their broken chessboard. I don’t care what tribe you are from or religion you belong to, we need to unite if we want actual change.”
