Peter Okoye accuses brothers of smear campaign amid ongoing legal battle
Peter Okoye, a former member of the P-Square duo, has taken to social media to express his frustrations, publicly criticising his brothers Paul and Jude, for attempting to deliberately damage his reputation amid their ongoing legal battle.
According to Peter, the trouble began when Jude’s lawyer claimed in court that he had lied in a statement submitted to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, regarding the royalties-related case.
The singer, in a series of instagram posts, alleged that his brother’s publicist was behind the calculated campaign to portray him as dishonest.
Peter expressed outrage, stating that he will no longer be the ‘bigger person’ as he had previously vowed.
The singer said, “Exactly what I was talking about, their publicist doing everything for me to look like a liar. I am not May D or Cynthia Morgan, I am Peter Okoye, the one and only the rock/okwute of the Okoyes. The truth shall surely prevail.
“Una thief abi una no thief?”
Peter Okoye added that the tragic case of late singer Mohbad made him realize the importance of standing up for oneself, revealing that he will no longer remain silent about wrongdoings again.
“After watching everything about Mohbad’s death and how the whole thing played out to date, I decided I would never play the bigger person nor act as the mature one. And that’s exactly what led to this whole madness. Simply because I was trying to be the bigger person! Omo! Never again,” he said.
He revealed that the 2021 P-Square reunion that was celebrated by fans was the result of manipulation.
“Only to find out that I was actually used in the whole November 2021 reunion! But since we’re already in court, I’ll wait for the right time to tell what really went down,” he added.
