The Lagos State Police Command issued a clarification regarding recent reports of DJ Switch’s arrest, revealing that it was DJ Commissioner Wysei who was apprehended, not DJ Switch as previously stated by some media outlets.
SP Benjamin Hundeyin, Police Public Relations Officer, acknowledged the mixup, admitting fault for the misinformation that led to inaccurate reports.
He expressed regret for any inconvenience caused to media outlets like Lindaikeji, BBC, and TVC, which had initially received confirmation of DJ Switch’s arrest.
“There is a mixup from our end. Arrested person is DJ Commissioner Wysei not DJ Switch.
“Apologies for all inconveniences to a few media outfits like Lindaikeji, BBC and TVC that I gave confirmation this morning.
Apologies to DJ Switch too. ”
The mix-up arose following reports circulating on Thursday alleging DJ Switch’s arrest and subsequent appearance in court over allegations of fraud and assault.
However, these reports were debunked by DJ Switch herself, who took to social media to refute the claims.
In a statement on X, DJ Switch clarified, “I was woken up by a barrage of calls and texts this morning. I wondered why because I know today is not my birthday. Only to find that I have been arrested.”
She vehemently denied the allegations, vowing to take legal action against those responsible for spreading false information.
