Nigerian singer Peter “Mr P” Okoye has alleged that his late mother, Josephine Okoye, repeatedly urged his brothers, Paul and Jude Okoye, to apologise to him and his wife, Lola Omotayo-Okoye, over the family’s treatment of them, but said the apology never came before her death.
PREMIUM TIMES earlier reported that the singer’s mother died in 2012 at a hospital in India following heart surgery. Doctors initially admitted her to St. Nicholas Hospital on Lagos Island before transferring her abroad for further treatment.
Mr P made the claim in the latest instalment (part eight) of his ongoing tell-all video series on social media, where he has been revisiting the events that led to the collapse of P-Square and the strained relationship within the Okoye family.
The singer, who married Lola in 2013 after several years together, said his relationship with her was strongly opposed by Jude and, at times, Paul, long before their wedding. He alleged that the hostility continued even after the birth of their first child and persisted despite efforts by their late mother to reconcile the family.
