Catherine Udeh, popularly known as DJ Switch, has said that the 2020 #EndSARS protest is a fight for the very fabric of our nation.

DJ switch gained prominence last year for doing a live Instagram coverage of protesters being shot at by Nigerian army officers at the Lekki tollgate during the #EndSARS protest which rocked the nation last year.

While Nigeria marks the one year anniversary of the #EndSARS with #EndSARSMemorial, the activist shared her  thoughts on her Instagram page. She captioned a video of herself at the #EndSARS protest last year with,

“On this day, last year 20.10.20 we were filled with hopes that young Nigerians took a solid stand. Through all the government’s antics, lies, counter protesters and thugs that were sent to attack us, we stood our ground!

“When the Nigerian government exhausted all their poorly planned tactics, they unleashed nothing short of evil on its citizens.

“I’ve not been able to talk today and I cannot imagine what others who had it worse, feel! I am so proud of our young generation of leaders and our celebrities that have shown great leadership.

“I also must say, it is not a one day affair. This is a fight for the very fabric of our nation! My life changed on this day… for worse! But, I also believe it changed for good! I now know what it means to need something so bad and that need for me is a better Nigeria!

“To the youths who risked it all today in order to remember 20.10.20, you are in every bit Superman/Superwoman! Thanks to @davido for an anthem to remember!”
