Some Nigerians have lambasted singer Paul Okoye, also known as Rude Boy, after announcing a solo project despite a recent feud with his twin brother, Peter, also known as Mr P.
According to Hitgist, Peter stated the cause of their fallout in a statement on Monday, including the involvement of their older brother Jude Okoye and his wife, Ifeoma.
The musician added that he, Paul, and Jude control Northside Entertainment, which manages all P-Square affairs.
However, he discovered a company with a similar name, Northside Music.
He studied the company and was startled to learn that Jude and Ifeoma Okoye were the founders and directors.
Peter claimed that the address used to register the firm was Ifeoma’s family home, and he questioned his twin brother, Paul, who denied knowing anything about the company.
This caused him to enlist his lawyers, who he instructed to file a petition against the suspect, Jude, but not his identical brother.
Peter stated that he filed the petition after learning that “millions of dollars and hundreds of millions of Naira were being secretly diverted into this secret company’s account, Northside Music, from our own Northside Entertainment.”
Unconcerned about his brother’s exposé, Paul Okoye took to Instagram on Tuesday to unveil his upcoming project, named ‘Feeling’.
However, many Nigerians voiced discontent with the post, demanding him to address the concerns his brother, Mr P.
