Nigeria disc jockey, Catherine Udeh, popularly known as DJ
Switch, has stated that the #EndSARS protest of 2020 changed her life for worse
and for better.
The activist took to her verified Instagram page on
Wednesday, which marked a year after the protest, to narrate how the movement
changed her life.
The DJ gained more prominence last year when she took to her
Instagram page to do a live coverage that showed protesters being shot at by
personnel of the Nigerian army at the Lekki Toll Gate during the #EndSARS
protest that rocked the nation last year.
While most Nigerians praised her for her braveness, the DJ
has claimed that she is on the run from the Nigerian government.
Sharing a video of herself on the protest day, she said, “On
this day, last year 20.10.20 we were filled with hopes that young Nigerians
took a solid stand.
“Through all the government’s antics, lies, counter
protesters and thugs that were sent to attack us, we stood our ground!
“When the Nigerian government exhausted all their poorly
planned tactics, they unleashed nothing short of evil on its citizens.
“I’ve not been able to talk today and I cannot imagine what
others who had it worse, feel!
“I am so proud of our young generation of leaders and our
celebrities that have shown great leadership.
“I also must say, it is not a one day affair. This is a
fight for the very fabric of our nation!
“My life changed on this day… for worse! But, I also believe
it changed for good! I now know what it means to need something so bad and that
need for me is a better Nigeria!
“To the youths who risked it all today in order to remember
20.10.20, you are in every bit Superman/Superwoman! Thanks to @davido for an
anthem to remember! #endsarsmemorial #endsars #whogavetheorder
