If this gist about DJ Switch being granted asylum in Canada is true… Good call!?
A pity, that the people who swore to protect, are the ones we fear the most.
Waiting for the day she will break a global record and we will hear ” Obianuju, Our daughter from Nigeria”.

I heard DJ Switch has been granted Assylum in Canada.
Great fuckin news!
Now, she can fearlessly talk about the events of that night and draw international media attention to it.
I hope she does a press run and heap on them the international embarrassment they hate so much.
