DJ Switch fires back at Joe Igbokwe, calling him a coward for defending a failed regime.
She says silence during injustice is not dignity and warns history will judge his complicity.
Popular Nigerian DJ and activist, Obianuju Catherine Udeh, popularly known as DJ Switch, has delivered a fiery response to APC chieftain Joe Igbokwe after he slammed her reaction to the death of former President Muhammadu Buhari.
Following Buhari’s passing on Sunday, July 13, 2025, DJ Switch posted a controversial message on Instagram that read: “Wow! The sweet reality of inevitability. RIP MF. One down.”
The post sparked backlash from Igbokwe, who took to Facebook to lambast her, writing: “So the ugly and nauseating lady is still talking. She has not realized the damage she did to Nigeria with her utterance. This lady needs help. She must have gone kolos.”
In a sharp clapback, DJ Switch called Igbokwe a coward and accused him of standing by a regime that harmed innocent Nigerians, especially youths.
“The only thing more embarrassing than your spelling is thinking silence in the face of murder, hardship and injustice is dignity. We faced bullets for justice. What did you ever face besides spell check and senility?” she wrote.
She went further to accuse him of defending killers while attacking survivors, stating: “You watched a government murder its youth and your only outrage is that I lived to tell the story? You think my utterance damaged Nigeria? No grandpa! your silence did, your cowardice did!”
DJ Switch, who became a prominent voice after live-streaming the Lekki toll gate shootings during the #EndSARS protest in 2020, concluded by warning Igbokwe that history would judge him.
“You are defending killers but attacking survivors, don’t worry history is writing your name in the footnotes under failure. Imagine being so useless to justice that the voice of a woman surviving Nigeria threatens your whole existence.”
