Family Feud Flares Again: Peter Okoye Slams Brother Jude in Bitter Public Spat!
The long-standing family drama within Nigeria's iconic Okoye clan has erupted once more, as music star Peter Okoye (Mr. P) is embroiled in a heated public spat with his elder brother and former manager, Jude Okoye. This re-ignited feud has taken over social media, revealing deep-seated animosity and ongoing legal battles.
The latest clash was sparked by recent cryptic social media comments from Jude Okoye, widely interpreted as accusing former associates (including his brothers, Peter and Paul 'Rudeboy') of greed, betrayal, and financial downfall after leaving his management.
Peter's Fiery Retort: "Respect Is Earned, Not Given"
Peter Okoye wasted no time in delivering a scathing counter-response via his Facebook page on Monday, June 30, 2025. He vehemently denied being "broke" and made explosive claims, alleging that Jude had not only wished him financial ruin but had also made false accusations to Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) officials, which Peter claimed led to Jude's own incarceration.
"JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE OLDER, DOESN'T MEAN YOU DESERVE RESPECT. RESPECT IS EARNED, NOT GIVEN," Peter declared in his fiery post. He emphatically stated that Jude was merely an "employed manager" who was eventually "sacked," dismissing Jude's narrative of having single-handedly "shouldered" their careers as the P-Square duo. Peter further asserted that his solo career as Mr. P has brought him significantly more financial and personal fulfillment than he ever achieved while splitting income three ways with P-Square and their former manager. "This solo journey has been a blessing—more rewarding and profitable, both financially and personally, no doubt. And it has also brought peace of mind," he wrote.
Legal Battles Continue to Simmer
Beyond the public exchanges, Peter has confirmed that he and Jude are still locked in legal battles. Previous reports indicate that a significant part of this ongoing dispute revolves around alleged misappropriation of royalties, particularly concerning P-Square's digital earnings. Peter has previously testified in court against Jude regarding these serious allegations of financial impropriety.
This latest public confrontation underscores the complex and unresolved dynamics within the Okoye family, despite the public reconciliation of Peter and Paul Okoye in 2021. The tension highlights Peter's unwavering conviction that his individual path has proven to be more beneficial for him, both personally and professionally.
