DJ Switch Abandons Mother & Siblings In Search Of Fame, Begs Mum For Forgiveness
For abandoning her mother and siblings while searching for fame and fortune, fast rising rapper and winner of the maiden edition of Glo X Factor, Obianuju Catherine Udeh aka DJ Switch, has begged for forgiveness.  The 29-year-old Geology graduate of the University of Port Harcourt was declared winner of the Globacom sponsored music reality TV show at the grand finale held in Lagos and beamed to million of viewers across the continent yesterday. She beat two other contestants, Ethel Eshun and Vicky Gomoti in the last round of voting to win a whopping N24 million cash prize and a recording contract with Sony Music.

In an exclusive interview with The Entertainer, the indigene of Udi, Enugu State, said she felt bad for abandoning home for more than a year while pursuing her music career and now that she has made it, she's asking for forgiveness. "I am sorry mum for being away from home for so long while in search of glory. Now that I am back, I will take good care of you," DJ Switch declares in tears.
Switch likened herself to a prodigal son who got opportunities but frittered them away. "I was like a prodigal son who had an opportunity in the past but due to youthful exuberance I mismanaged the resources. Now, I am a better person and more matured, I won't disappoint my mum and my fans."
The rapper whose single, Landing Safely, would be released next week, vowed to continue working as long as she lives. "For me, it's going to be work, work and work," she promised.

The climax
It was the moment everybody has been waiting for. It was the moment when the result of the long drawn competition would be announced. As the clock ticked away, the contestants held hands as they anticipated the results that would change the life of one of them forever. Toolz invited the representative from Alexandra Forbes onto the stage, lingered a bit and teased the audience as she twirled the green envelope containing the results in her hands.
"And the first winner of the Glo X Factor West Africa is… DJ Switch!" Toolz announced as the crowd erupted in jubilation.
The first runner-up was Eshun and she got N1 million for her efforts, while Vicky, the second runner-up, also got N1 million.
