* Reports of my arrest false, misleading – DJ Switch
By Francesca Hangeior
The operatives of the Nigeria Police Force in Lagos have reportedly arrested Obianuju Catherine Udeh, professionally known as DJ Switch.
According to a police source, DJ Switch was at the police station in Elemoro, Ajah on Monday, April 15 to complain about a man who allegedly defrauded her.
According to the police, the man was arrested on the same day and has been in police custody.
It was alleged that while the officers were about to drive the accused to court, DJ Switch blocked the station’s entrance and assaulted the female officer assigned to the case.
She was eventually arrested for obstructing police while on duty, resisting arrest, and assaulting officers.
DJ Switch was reportedly being taken to a Magistrate court in Eti-Osa where she would be arraigned for obstructing police officers while on duty and assaulting officers at the time of filing this report.
Meanwhile, DJ Switch, has debunked reports that she was arrested in Lagos.
Writing on X, DJ Switch said the report was false and the perpetrators intended to tarnish her image.
She also threatened to sue the originators of the fake news.
”I was woken up by a barrage of calls and text this morning. I wondered why because I know today is not my birthday. Only to find that I, have been arrested,” she wrote.
”One of the links that was sent to me alleged that I had assaulted the police. Now, while I am not a fan of many of our police men and women, I do not condone nor do I support violence against the police.
”Our blogs have such an unhealthy appetite for traffic that they can’t even spend the transport fare it would cost them to go investigate and make certain of the news they share to the public. These false reporting is dangerous and negatively shapes narratives.
”Many people want so badly to believe I am just like those I’ve fought against or believing that I have sacrificed all I have ever worked for just to bring down Nigeria. This is false.
”That being said, my lawyers have screenshotted every blog they can find this false news and this is defamation of my character. These blogs have till end of day to take down this false news and kindly replace with a post correcting their mistake. I am not looking for cheap publicity, I hate clout chasing and I actually am not an ass because I was advised to sue immediately which would cost them all a lot. So please do the needful and let us learn.”
Recall that DJ Switch fled Nigeria in the aftermath of #EndSARS protests after insisting that soldiers shot at peaceful protesters at Lekki Toll Gate, Lagos, on October 20, 2020.
She also said that they were sent to the protest venue on orders from above.
DJ Switch said this while speaking with the Sub-committee on International Human Rights of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development of the Canadian Parliament.
Actress Regina Daniels revealed that she has emotionally stepped away from marriage but still hopes to have a daughter.
Speaking during a livestream with TikTok personality Jarvis, Daniels reflected on motherhood and relationships.
She revealed she has not seen her children since last year, though she remains hopeful they will reunite soon.
The mother of two explained that for personal reasons, she no longer envisions remarrying.
However, she expressed a strong desire to have a baby girl. According to her, raising a daughter offers a deeper connection to motherhood.
Daniels said having a female child brings a different and more profound understanding of being a mother.
“The last time I saw my children was last year. I know one day, I’ll see them again, very soon. But for some reason I have checked my mind out of getting married but I’m yet to have a girl and I must have a girl child. I feel like you’d understand motherhood better when you have a girl child”, she said.
In October last year, she parted ways with her husband, Ned Nwoko, following a public disagreement.
Popular Nigerian Afrobeat musician, David Adeleke, also known as Davido, has raised alarm over an alleged plot to deregister Accord party ahead of the forthcoming governorship election in Osun State.
The singer made the claim a post on X on Thursday.
Why questioning reasons for the deregistration, Davido called for free and fair election.
He wrote; “Deregister Accord party for what? Cowards let’s go to the field.”
This is coming 48 hours after the singer called out Gboyega Oyetola, the minister of Marine and Blue Economy, and the immediate past governor of the state over alleged desperate plan.
Recall that Osun State’s current governor and Davido’s uncle, Ademola Adeleke, announced his resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in December 2025 following the party’s national leadership crisis and legal dispute and joined Accord Party for his re-election.

Fans and colleagues have taken to the post’s comment section to congratulate the expecting parents.

They got engaged in April 2023.
In August 2025, Mr Eazi and Temi tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony at Hallgrímskirkja in Reykjavik, Iceland.
