The entertainer, DJ Switch, recounted the incident that led to the deaths of about a dozen protesters at the Lekki Toll Gate. She told the Canadian parliament that she counted not less than seven persons shot, adding that one of the soldiers threatened to shoot her.
She revealed that she has been in hiding following threats to her life by unknown people.
She said she initially thought it was an empty threat until she received a call that the military was trying to arrest her.
“I have been on the move because they have been after my life. The first threat came in, I thought it was a joke, I sincerely thought it was a joke.
“Just as I was leaving, I got a phone call that I should leave the vicinity because there are military men at the hospital.
“I had to abandon my home, I moved from people’s home, and then just to get out of Nigeria. I am still traveling, and I am not done with my trip,” DJ Switch revealed.
