Peter Okoye has revealed a painful chapter in his ongoing feud with twin brother Paul Okoye, disclosing that relentless social media attacks on his wife, Lola, forced him to abandon their shared birthday date. The revelation came during the sixth episode of Peter's tell-all series, where he shared a screenshot of an Instagram story Paul allegedly posted targeting Lola around their joint birthday on November 18th.
Paul's Alleged Attack on Lola
In the post, Paul directed harsh words at Lola, writing: "At the age of almost 50, you still think you can still be manipulative and always trying to be in control as usual... well am not there anymore; Jude also is not there anymore... which was exactly how you wanted it. Aunty, for 4years we haven't spoken, but every 18th of November you come out as usual to type shhit.... and they end up saying 'awwww she's a good woman' meanwhile they don't know the evil things you do behind closed doors... while on the outside you try to portray an angel.... Anyways, it's the social media era; what do I expect. Next year will come again; you'll still come and type shiit.... You know me very well, and you know I don't pretend. So continue doing what you are doing. You don cast finish already. No need to expose you. That's why I've never said anything because it's family....let your guilt deal with you."
Peter explained that Lola found herself in an impossible position each birthday. Because she could not post about Peter without acknowledging Paul, she would include both brothers, which routinely triggered backlash from Paul and abuse from fans in her comments section.
The Pain Behind the Birthday Posts
"Right now I have changed my birthday. It's worth it. Do you know what I've been going through ever since PSquare had problems? And anytime we're celebrating our birthday, it will be insult upon insult on my wife and myself," Peter said. He added that during the most recent incident, he and Lola had actually argued before the post went up. Peter said he specifically warned Lola not to post anything about the birthday that year, but she went ahead regardless. Paul's response on his Instagram story followed swiftly, and the public shaming that came after caused a serious rift between Peter and his wife.
"Lola and I had a serious fight. I told her not to post about the birthday. When Lola posted, Paul posted in his IG story; he shamed her. And people expect me to continue celebrating the same birthday date with him?" Peter said.
Peter's Decision to Change His Birthday
Peter confirmed that he has since permanently shifted his birthday celebration to November 30th, stating the change was entirely worth it to protect both his wife and his peace of mind. The decision marks a significant break from tradition, as the twin brothers had shared the November 18th date for decades, both personally and professionally as the iconic duo P-Square.
The feud between the Okoye brothers has been public and contentious since their split, with multiple reunions and breakups. This latest revelation adds a personal dimension, highlighting the toll the conflict has taken on their families.
Peter's Claims on Reunion Impact
In related news, Legit.ng previously reported that Peter Okoye alleged that P-Square's reunion with his twin brother slowed his social media growth. He explained that before the comeback, his accounts were booming, gaining up to 100,000 new followers daily and ranking alongside Davido and Don Jazzy in influence. However, after the reunion, his follower growth dropped drastically, and he speculated that the comeback might have been the reason, though he admitted he wasn't entirely certain.
The ongoing saga continues to captivate fans, with many taking sides. Peter's decision to change his birthday date is seen as a definitive move to distance himself from the toxic dynamics of the feud, prioritizing his family's well-being over public expectations.
