Many social media users have rallied behind Peter “Mr P” Okoye as his renewed public dispute with his twin brother, Paul “Rudeboy” Okoye, and their elder brother and former manager, Jude Okoye, continues to dominate online conversations.
The growing support follows Mr P’s ongoing multi-part video series in which he recounts the events that led to P-Square’s repeated breakups and the family’s long-running financial dispute. In the videos, which have now reached Part Six, he accused Jude of claiming ownership of P-Square, withholding financial records, delaying access to the group’s backend catalogue and mishandling royalty payments.
Jude has denied the allegations, describing them as “blatant lies” and “manipulative tactics.” He maintains that the disputed royalty payments and financial records were already presented during the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) investigation and remain matters before the court.
P-Square, made up of Mr P and Rudeboy, was formed in 1999 and grew into one of Africa’s biggest music groups with hit songs including “Bizzy Body”, “Do Me”, “Personally”, “No One Like”, “You” and “Chop My Money.” The brothers first split in 2017 before reuniting in 2021. Their reunion, however, ended in another breakup in 2024 following renewed disagreements over finances and management.
