Peter Okoye, one half of the iconic duo P-Square, has issued a stern warning to his twin brother Paul Okoye, known professionally as Rudeboy, following the backlash over his widely discussed 'who Naija language help' comment. In a new video, Peter addressed the controversy head-on, confirming he had already tendered an apology on the same platform where the original post appeared. However, he made it clear that his patience with his brother's repeated public digs has run out.
Peter Okoye Done Being 'Mr Nice Guy'
'At this point I'm done being Mr Nice Guy,' he said bluntly. 'It's aura for aura. I'm gonna start giving you the same energy.' Peter acknowledged that his new stance would attract criticism, with people likely calling him childish or troublesome, but insisted none of it would affect him anymore. He challenged anyone online to produce footage of him publicly trying to undermine Paul, Jude, or any member of their family, insisting the pattern of provocation has consistently come from the other side.
Details of the 2021 Reunion Exposed
Beyond the current feud, Peter went further, pulling back the curtain on the much-celebrated November 2021 reunion that fans had embraced with excitement. According to him, the reconciliation was staged from the start. He recounted returning from a three-month tour of Canada and the United States on 17 November 2021, only to learn minutes before landing in Lagos that Paul had shown up at his home at 4 a.m., frightening his wife, Lala, who felt compelled to record the incident out of fear. By the time Peter arrived home, Paul's team had already assembled at the house alongside his own.
Peter claimed that when the two brothers finally embraced that evening, it was at the prompting of others, not out of genuine reconciliation. The video of their hug went viral within minutes. The following morning, Peter says he posted a new music video titled I Love You featuring Teni, Simi and Tamar Braxton before Paul arrived at his home. When Paul arrived and learned about the release, tensions resurfaced immediately over competing projects.
Peter Says He Never Wanted P-Square Back
Peter told Paul directly that day that he was not interested in reviving P-Square, only in rebuilding their relationship as brothers. He recalled telling him plainly: 'P-Square, I am done. Maybe in future, right now I'm done.' He said Paul's response confused him, and that when they later filmed a joint video for fans, neither of them introduced themselves as P-Square. Paul said 'I'm Rudeboy' while Peter said 'I'm Mr P,' which Peter cited as proof that no genuine reunion had taken place.
'I never wanted P-Square,' Peter said. 'All I wanted was for the brothers to come back as family.' He also challenged anyone online to produce footage of him publicly trying to pull his twin brother or family down, insisting the pattern of provocation has consistently come from the other side.
Impact on Social Media Growth
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Nigerian music star Peter Okoye alleged that P-Square's reunion with his twin brother Rudeboy slowed down 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 feud erupted after Peter's 'who Naija language help' comment went viral, sparking widespread backlash. Despite offering an apology, Peter has now drawn a line, signaling that he will no longer tolerate what he perceives as repeated attacks from his twin brother.
