Celebrity Disc Jockey, Obianuju Ude, known by her stage name DJ Switch, has challenged the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike and Ex-militant, Asari Dokubo, to go out and stop Nigerians frustrated by hunger from engaging in the hunger protest.
Human rights activist, DJ Switch advised the federal government that only food and economic prosperity from good governance can stop citizens from engaging in the #EndBadGovernanceinNigeria protest.
A former Niger Delta militant, Asari Dokubo, and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, had warned protesters to stay away from Rivers State and Abuja, respectively. While Dokubo threatened violence on protesters, Wike said he would not allow “disgruntled” people to disturb the peace of FCT in the name of protest.
On her X handle on Thursday, Switch wrote, “The only thing that can stop hunger is food! Not guns, not teargas, not threats from fat globs like Asari Dokubo and chicken feed Wike! I wonder why they are hiding now…. Come outside let them eat you raw!”
One of the leaders of 2020 Endsars protest, Obianuju had advised citizens on the first day of the hunger protest – August 1 – to look out for one another. She encouraged Nigerians to brace up and see the hunger protest as another opportunity to achieve good governance in the country.
“Intimidation is standard tactics for the Nigerian government. That is all they have… we the people have will and desire for a working Nigeria for all and not a select few! The more they threaten with violence, the more that desire and will for change persists.
“Please, do not let this be ENDSARS 2.0, do not fail yourselves and render meaningless the sacrifices we make. Never in history have there been change without sacrifice. The time I believe is now,” Dj Switch wrote.
