Paul Okoye Defends Brother Jude, Accuses Peter Okoye of Orchestrating Legal Troubles
Full Story:
The rift within the Okoye family has taken a dramatic turn as Paul Okoye, one-half of the defunct P-Square duo, has come out strongly in defense of his elder brother, Jude Okoye, amid ongoing legal troubles. In a bold and emotional statement, Paul directly accused his twin brother, Peter Okoye, of being behind the allegations against Jude, claiming that Peter is using legal means to target their elder brother.
Paul Okoye Stands by Jude
Speaking to journalists outside the courtroom, Paul expressed frustration over the way the case was being portrayed in the media, arguing that the charges against Jude were unfair and misleading.
“I came here to stand with my brother because I know the truth,” Paul declared. “The way journalists are presenting this situation makes it look like Jude is guilty of fraud, but that is not the case. There is more to this than what people are being told.”
Paul further stated that his presence at the court was not just a show of solidarity but also a commitment to ensuring justice. “I am here as his surety. Whatever is required, I will provide. This is not just about supporting him—it is about standing for the truth,” he added.
Blames Peter for Legal Troubles
The biggest revelation from Paul’s statement was his accusation against his twin brother, Peter. He did not mince words in claiming that Peter was the mastermind behind Jude’s legal woes.
“Peter is the one behind all of this. People need to stop twisting the story,” Paul asserted. “He is the one trying to put Jude in prison, while I am here trying to get him out.”
This statement has fueled speculation about a deep-rooted family feud that extends far beyond the dissolution of P-Square. While the details of the legal case remain unclear, Paul’s remarks suggest that internal family politics may be at play.
Denies Taking Sides, Claims Equal Guilt
When asked if he was choosing Jude’s side over Peter’s, Paul insisted that his stance was purely based on the facts. He argued that if Jude was guilty of the allegations against him, then Peter was equally guilty.
“This is not about taking sides. If Jude is guilty of what they are accusing him of, then Peter is equally guilty. That is the reality,” Paul stated firmly.
His remarks indicate that he believes there is an unfair bias in the accusations against Jude, and that Peter may have played a role in shaping the narrative.
Confidence in the Legal System
Despite the high tensions, Paul expressed confidence in the legal proceedings, stating that he believes the judge understands the true nature of the case.
“This whole thing helps in a way because the judge can see what’s going on. He understands everything. The truth will come out,” he said.
A History of Family Feud
The Okoye family’s conflicts have been in the public eye for years, particularly the well-documented fallout between the P-Square twins, Paul and Peter. Their separation as a music duo in 2017 shocked fans, with both artists going on to pursue solo careers under the names Rudeboy (Paul) and Mr. P (Peter).
Jude Okoye, who was their longtime manager, has often been at the center of their disagreements. Peter had previously accused Jude of mismanaging their affairs, while Paul remained supportive of their elder brother. This latest legal battle appears to have reignited those old wounds, bringing their disputes back into the spotlight.
What’s Next for the Okoye Brothers?
With Paul publicly backing Jude and accusing Peter of foul play, this family dispute shows no signs of resolution anytime soon. Fans have been left divided, with some supporting Paul’s stance, while others believe Peter may have valid reasons for his actions.
As the legal proceedings continue, all eyes will be on whether the brothers can settle their differences or if this will deepen their estrangement further. One thing is clear—what was once Nigeria’s biggest music duo is now a family torn apart by allegations, distrust, and legal battles.
