P-Square Rift: Peter Okoye Debunks Claims Late Mother Disliked Lola, Accuses Paul and Jude of Betrayal

The ongoing saga surrounding iconic Afrobeats duo P-Square has taken another intense turn. Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P, has publicly set the record straight on long-standing rumors surrounding his marriage, his family, and the real reasons behind the group’s dramatic fallout.

Addressing social media narratives blaming his wife, Lola Omotayo-Okoye, and claims regarding his late mother’s stance, Peter firmly rejected claims that family breakdown stemmed from wives or in-laws.

“No Woman Caused It” — Peter Speaks Out

In a series of statements and tell-all video updates, Peter debunked persistent rumors that his late mother disliked Lola or that women caused the division within the Okoye family.

20-Year Financial and Trust Disagreements: Peter stated that the core friction began over two decades ago—long before any of the brothers were married—revolving around transparency, management control, and financial operations within the group.
Defending Lola: He warned fans and commentators against dragging his wife into the narrative, stating clearly: “Before you drag any woman into this! No woman directed or advised anyone to steal from what I worked for over the years.”
Accusations Against Paul and Jude: Peter accused his twin brother Paul (Rudeboy) and elder brother/ex-manager Jude Okoye of systematic betrayal, financial disenfranchisement, and side-stepping backend transparency regarding digital music royalties.

Deepening Legal Battles & Financial Disputes

The dispute has escalated beyond public exchanges into formal legal proceedings at the Federal High Court in Lagos.

Royalty Allegations: Peter testified regarding redirected catalogue revenues and secret company entities set up without his authorization.
Property Disagreements: Recent revelations by Peter also highlighted severe arguments over jointly owned family assets, including properties in Atlanta.
Prioritizing Mental Health: Addressing critics urging a family compromise, Mr P emphasized that protecting his peace and mental well-being takes priority: “Boundaries are necessary! Blood isn’t thicker than my peace of mind.”
