Peter Okoye Slams Brother Jude in Heated Online Clash: “This Solo Journey Has Been a Blessing”
Nigerian music icon Peter Okoye, one-half of the defunct legendary duo P-Square, has come out swinging at his elder brother and former manager, Jude Okoye, in a blistering Facebook post that has fans talking.
The rift between the brothers, which has long been simmering, reignited after Jude Okoye took to social media to criticize individuals—clearly hinting at Peter—who “got greedy” and “bragged about their new-found freedom,” only to later “fall off” and become “broke.”
But Peter was having none of it.
💥 “You Wished I Was Broke!”
Peter fired back hard, accusing Jude of not only wishing him financial ruin but also dragging him to the EFCC, alleging that Jude falsely told anti-graft agents that Peter was broke—a move which Peter claims eventually backfired on his elder brother.
“Calling me broke or wishing I was broke has been your wish. These are the exact same words you told EFCC officials. And you ended up getting locked up in prison.”
💼 “You Were a Paid Manager — and You Got Fired”
In a particularly savage clapback, Peter stripped Jude of the self-appointed image of "mentor" or "shoulder" to the group, stating clearly:
“You were employed as a manager, and you got sacked like the others before you. Period.”
💸 Solo Life, Bigger Paychecks
Peter went on to highlight that since breaking away from P-Square, his life — both personally and financially — has improved significantly:
“I now earn more as a solo artiste than I did when I was in P-Square, splitting money three ways. I have peace of mind and freedom. This solo journey has been a blessing.”
He also referenced that his earnings from endorsements and performances now far exceed what he used to take home during the group’s days.
🧘♂️ “Peace of Mind Over Drama”
Peter’s message was not just about money. He emphasized how choosing himself over betrayal and emotional drama has led to peace of mind:
“Why share with people who stole from you, betrayed you, and still discriminate against your efforts?”
💬 Setting Boundaries
Peter ended his post by stressing that he’s done being the “mature one” in the face of repeated disrespect:
“I’ve stopped playing nice. I treat people exactly how they treat me. Cross me, I cut you off. Life is not about begging for fair treatment.”
🔍 OPINION: Is Family Loyalty Overrated in Business?
Peter’s bold stance exposes a recurring theme in the entertainment world — when family and business mix, the lines can get blurred. His decision to prioritize self-worth over shared bloodlines may not sit well with traditionalists, but it also reflects the reality that peace and progress sometimes require separation — even from family.
In an industry where artists are often exploited by those closest to them, speaking your truth — and backing it with results — is powerful. If anything, Peter’s journey sends a message:
You can love your family from a distance and still thrive.
🗣️ What Fans Are Saying Online:
“Peter has always been the bold one. Jude should stop the guilt-tripping.”
“Family or not, once money is involved, emotions will fly.”
“Peter is winning solo and it’s driving some people crazy.”
“It’s sad it had to get this public, but sometimes the truth needs a loudspeaker.”
