DJ Switch has reportedly relocated to Canada after several attempts on her life after the killing of peaceful End Sars protesters in Lekki.
The sensational disc jockey revealed that soldiers shot at peaceful End Sars protesters at Lekki Toll Gate, Lagos, and stated that they were sent to the protest ground on orders from above.
She made this known while speaking with the Sub-committee on International Human Rights of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development of the Canadian parliament.
DJ Switch recounted the incident that led to the deaths of about a dozen protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate. She noted that the military opened fire on the protesters after creating a three-formation line. Debunking claims by the Nigerian Army that soldiers fired blank bullets into the air, DJ Switch said the soldiers shot at them.
According to reporters, she told the Canadian parliament that she counted not less than seven persons shot, adding that one of the soldiers threatened to shoot her.
“On October 20, 2020, we had spirited Nigerians there united with one goal against police brutality against bad governance. What started out as a protest against police brutality with the unit called SARS, unfortunately, degenerated into something I still find hard to reconcile within my heart.
“We got information that the government wants to see me and six other people and I remember saying to them that we have no leader and if the government wanted to speak with us, he should kindly come to the toll gate and address Nigerians because we have been out for eleven days.”
She added that the first gunshot was heard from behind, adding that it was chaotic as people were running in different directions so as not to be hit by a bullet until it was announced that protesters should lie on the floor.
