Peter Okoye, one half of the iconic P-Square duo, has come out swinging no filters.
In a fiery Instagram Story shared just moments after a court session over the alleged N1.38bn fraud involving Peter and his elder brother and former manager, Jude Chigozie Okoye, the music star made it clear: he’s done playing Mr. Nice Guy.
Earlier this week, Jude’s lawyer told the Federal High Court in Lagos that Peter’s statement to the EFCC was “full of lies,” especially regarding his claims about not accessing Northside Music Ltd’s bank accounts and his academic credentials. The lawyer also challenged Peter’s comments about not receiving royalties and being sidelined in company decisions.
But Peter isn’t taking the heat lying down.
“Exactly what I was talking about: their publicist doing everything for me to look like a liar. I am not MayD or Cynthia Morgan; I am PETER OKOYE, the one and only THE ROCK/OKWUTE of the Okoyes. The truth shall surely prevail.”
He didn’t stop there.
In a follow-up post, Peter referenced the late Mohbad’s tragic situation, suggesting it influenced his decision to stop “being the mature one” in the face of injustice.
“After watching everything about Mohbad’s death and how the whole thing played out to date, I decided to myself that I would never play the bigger person nor act as the mature one… Never again. So love me or hate me, I will continue speaking my truth!”
