Jude Okoye, the former manager of the defunct P-Square music group, has addressed the recent controversies involving his siblings, Peter and Paul Okoye.
The conflict within the group has reignited public interest following recent accusations and disputes.
The latest issue surfaced when Paul Okoye, known as Rudeboy, disclosed in an interview that P-Square has once again split up. Paul alleged that his twin brother, Peter Okoye, also known as Mr P, had implicated him and their elder brother, Jude Okoye, in a case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) concerning alleged fraudulent activities.
Peter Okoye responded by publishing an open letter, in which he accused Paul of sullying his reputation and claimed that Paul and Jude had colluded to defraud him.
In a live Instagram session on Saturday, Jude Okoye vehemently denied the fraud allegations made by Peter. Jude criticized Peter for manipulating the narrative to make it seem as though he was involved in wrongdoing.
Jude further expressed his frustration with being entangled in the family dispute, attributing it to a belief that he should act as a mediator. “These people [Peter and Paul] have children that are teenagers. If they were in America, they would be grandfathers now. Why is it that Peter always involved me in their fight? It’s because he had that impression that people always called Jude, the elder one, [to say] ‘go and settle your brothers, go and put your family in order’,” Jude remarked.
He added, “What do you mean by go and put your family in order? My family is in order. Let them put their family in order. If they are doing business together, let them put it in order. I have tried to the point I sacrificed myself.”
