Peter Okoye Calls Out his Brother ‘Paul’ for Discrediting His Contributions to P-Square Feuds
In a surprising turn of events, Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr. P, has publicly addressed his ongoing feud with his twin brother Paul Okoye, also known as Rudeboy, over the contributions to their iconic music duo, P-Square. The controversy erupted after Paul claimed in multiple interviews that he was responsible for writing and singing 99% of their songs, a statement that Peter found deeply hurtful and misleading.
Peter Okoye’s Emotional Response on Social Media
Peter took to X.com, formerly known as Twitter, to express his frustration and disappointment with Paul’s repeated discrediting of his efforts in the group. In a heartfelt letter, Peter highlighted several songs he had written, including hits like “Ejeajo,” “Get-Squared,” and “Bizzy Body,” which Paul failed to acknowledge. Peter’s message was clear: the success of P-Square was a result of their combined efforts, not just one person’s talent.
Peter emphasized that he had never seen himself in competition with Paul or anyone else, but Paul’s constant need to take credit for the duo’s success was both painful and unjust. He expressed how he had always referred to their achievements using “we” and “us,” viewing P-Square as a team, while Paul often used “I” and “me,” as if Peter’s contributions were non-existent.
The Impact of the Feud on P-Square’s Legacy
The public feud between the Okoye brothers has cast a shadow over the legacy of P-Square, once regarded as Africa’s most decorated and successful music group. Fans who admired the duo for their unique blend of talents now find themselves caught in the middle of a bitter rivalry. Peter’s open letter reveals the depth of the rift between the brothers and raises questions about the future of P-Square.
Peter also pointed out that the constant bickering and competition between them had turned what was once a powerful music force into a “laughingstock.” He lamented that instead of working together to reclaim their top spot in the music industry, Paul seemed more focused on marginalizing him and diminishing his contributions.
Fans’ Reactions and the Future of P-Square
Fans of P-Square have expressed their disappointment over the ongoing feud, with many urging the brothers to reconcile and restore the group’s former glory. Social media has been flooded with messages of support for both Peter and Paul, but also with calls for unity. The fans, Peter reminded, fell in love with P-Square for their combined efforts, not just one person’s talent. The magic that made P-Square special was their unity, something that seems to be in jeopardy now.
The future of P-Square remains uncertain as the brothers continue to pursue solo careers under their respective monikers, Mr. P and Rudeboy. While Peter has expressed a desire to focus on his music and move on from the drama, the public nature of their dispute makes it difficult to see a path toward reconciliation. The question remains whether the duo can set aside their differences and return to the stage as the powerhouse they once were.
Conclusion: A Call for Unity Amidst the Feud
The rift between Peter and Paul Okoye is more than just a sibling rivalry; it’s a clash that has the potential to permanently alter the landscape of African music. Peter’s open letter serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of unity, not just in music but in all collaborative endeavors. As the world watches, there is still hope that the Okoye brothers can heal their relationship and bring back the magic of P-Square. Until then, fans can only wait and see what the future holds for these two iconic artists.
