Nigerian entertainer, Obianuju Catherine Udeh better known as DJ Switch, has debunked the claims that she got asylum to Canada.
A few months back, Switch made headlines after live streaming the shooting that occurred at the Lekki Toll Gate in an Instalive video on October 20, 2020.
Not long after the gunshot incident during the EndSARS protest at the tollgate, news made the rounds online that she fled the country and has taken asylum in Canada.
Personal assistant to singer, Peter Okoye, Charles Abi, even granted an interview where he shared that DJ Switch is safe and out of the country.
Well, in a new development, Switch took to her Instastories to refute the reports that she has been granted asylum in Canada. According to her, she never stepped foot into Canada and has been cooked up in a house for months.
She wrote,
To the people who know me so well, I don’t really share, except my craft, art and comments on social issues that affect us all.
But let me say this… news outlets and bloggers, I know traffic is the game but when you don’t really investigate properly and run with things that you don’t know for sure or have verified, you sincerely hurt and in some cases cause serious complications for people in “REAL LIFE”.
I’ve been cooked up in a house for months. I never got asylum to Canada, I did not step foot into Canada. I didn’t even speak to anyone who claimed they spoke to me on the issue.
Anyways, I will leave it there.
By the way, it is now that I am traveling…. And it is not to Canada!
Love!
It is to talk after you reach wherever you are going.
Don’t come back until Nigeria is different. Have a happy life.
