Ify Okoye, the wife of Jude Okoye, has finally broken her silence following allegations made by music star Peter Okoye amid the ongoing Psquare family feud. In a spiritual response shared on her verified Instagram account on Tuesday, August 4, 2026, Ify invoked the biblical story of Ananias and Sapphira, a couple from the Book of Acts who were struck down for deceiving the early church.
Background of the Allegations
The controversy began when Peter Okoye, in his new tell-all videos, called out his elder brother Jude, alleging that Jude had attempted to transfer his ownership rights in Psquare management to his wife, Ify, which Peter claimed he refused. This comes after Peter's earlier claims in 2025 that Ify held 80 per cent ownership in a company called Northside Entertainment Ltd, where he alleged Psquare's royalties were being channelled. Peter further claimed that she owned 800,000 shares in the company.
Rather than directly addressing the financial claims, Ify chose a faith-based approach. In her post, she wrote: "The story of Ananias and Sapphira reminds us that while people can deceive others for a time, no one can deceive God. He is the righteous Judge who weighs every motive, exposes every falsehood, and upholds the truth in His perfect time."
Ify's Statement on Defense and Truth
Ify made it clear she had no intention of trading accusations publicly, adding: "I have no desire to defend myself before those committed to misunderstanding me. Truth does not need manipulation to prevail, and I trust God to vindicate what is right." Her statement comes after her husband Jude Okoye previously countered Peter's allegations, escalating what has become a very public family dispute.
The feud has drawn significant attention, with fans and followers of the iconic group Psquare taking sides. The Okoye brothers, who formed Psquare in the early 2000s, have had a history of public disagreements, but this latest round has intensified, with Peter releasing multiple videos detailing his grievances.
Peter Okoye's Claims on Social Media Growth
In related news, Legit.ng also reported that Peter Okoye alleged that Psquare's reunion with his twin brother, Rudeboy, 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.
Impact of the Feud
The feud has not only affected the brothers' personal relationships but also their professional brand. Psquare, known for hits like "Do Me" and "Personally," has a massive fan base across Africa and beyond. The ongoing dispute has led to speculation about the future of the group, with many wondering if a reconciliation is possible.
As the saga continues, fans and observers await further responses from both parties. Ify's spiritual message adds a new dimension to the conflict, suggesting that she and Jude are relying on divine intervention to clear their names. Whether this will quell the allegations or escalate the war of words remains to be seen.
