[Instagram/DJSwitch] The popular disc jockey who streamed live the shooting at the Lekki Toll Gate during the #EndSars protest, DJ Switch speaks to CNN's Becky Anderson on Lekki Toll Gate shooting, on Wednesday, November 18, 2020. During their chat, Nigerian popular disc jockey and activist DJ Switch said the Nigerian government is a dictatorship with a democratic face. The government has become a dictatorship headed by people who arrest and persecute innocent citizens, according to her.
The disc jockey says she doesn't mind getting arrested when she returns to the country. She told the CNN journalist how the government has openly bullied and attacked some of the protesters since the protest by seizing their passports or illegally detaining them. She went on to reveal how her career as a disc jockey has been cut short because of the hard evidence against the government. "My career is gone, all my bookings are gone. But I am happy that I have used my platform to do this. I don't want to run forever. I want to go back home, I don't care if they pick me when I get home," she said.
