Nigerian disc jockey Obianuju Catherine Udeh, popularly known as DJ Switch, has taken to social media to share her thoughts on the proposed nationwide protest set to take place from August 1 to 15. This protest aims to address the economic hardships currently affecting many Nigerians.
DJ Switch first gained widespread recognition for her coverage of the tragic shooting incident at the Lekki tollgate during the EndSARS protests. Her brave documentation of the event brought international attention to the plight of Nigerian youths protesting police brutality.
In her recent post, DJ Switch emphasized her support for the upcoming protest. She highlighted the severe economic challenges that many Nigerians are facing and urged people to stand together in demanding better conditions. According to her, this protest is a crucial opportunity for citizens to make their voices heard and push for meaningful change.
DJ Switch’s message is clear: the economic situation in Nigeria is dire, and collective action is needed to address it. She believes that by joining the protest, Nigerians can demonstrate their unity and determination to improve their country’s economic landscape.

‘’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 fucking 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:
1. So that there is a record of them supporting it and;
2. To guide you all like babies to do your protest and go and sleep.
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 horn.
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!
The tribal division they’ve sown amongst us was a desperate move on their broken chessboard which should have fallen flat on its face but there are those of us who are so selfish, shortsighted and wicked. They will sell their children for the brown envelope. These unfortunate Nigerians that traded their brains and patriotism for alomo bitters are a huge obstacle to those of us that want a working nation. I don’t care what tribe you are from or religion you belong to, we NEED to unite if we want actual change.
I’m expecting the bots to call me all sorts of names as usual, like I give a shit! Mosquito disturb me pass those ones. But if you keep missing your opportunity to send these thieves back to where they belong then soon you all will be like the girl/boy who cried wolf!
As the August protest approaches, DJ Switch’s endorsement is likely to resonate with many, inspiring more people to participate and advocate for their rights. Her influence and passion for social justice continue to make her a significant figure in Nigeria’s ongoing fight for better governance and economic stability.
