- One of the Psquare duo, Peter Okoye has debunked the alleged arrest of his brother Paul
- The arrest as earlier alleged by Paul Okoye was the crux of their recent fallout
- Sharing his own side of the story, Peter explained what transpired, debunking the claims of using the EFCC to arrest his brother Paul
Few hours after opening up on their ongoing feud, Peter Okoye of P-Square has debunked his brother Paul’s claims suggesting that he (Peter) told the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to arrest him (Paul).
Peter had earlier shared how he felt about the feud between them particularly pointing out how his brother discredited his efforts and disrespected him.
In a new statement released on his official X (formerly Twitter page, on August 12, Peter shared a long thread of the signed document to exonerate himself.
The 42-year-old singer noted that the claims that he arrested Paul using the EFCC was a lie and he was forced to set the record straight.
The statement read in part;
“It’s always surprising to me when people say, “P-SQUARE is always bringing their family matters into the public eye.” Let me clarify this. P-SQUARE is not just a family - it’s a public brand, but Peter, Paul, Jude, Anita, Ifeoma, Lola, and the rest of our family members are FAMILY, but P-SQUARE is an entity that belongs to the public as much as it does belong to us.
Our fans have played a significant role in our success, so they have the right to know what’s happening with their beloved brand P-SQUARE. That’s why it’s understandable when certain aspects of our lives are shared publicly.
Now, let's get straight to the point. I want to make it clear that I never reported my twin brother PAUL to the EFCC. I know many of you were disappointed when PAUL accused me of doing so. He mentioned that I wrote a petition against him, which he claimed made the EFCC to ask him to provide a surety. This statement suggested that he was detained, which is not true.”
Peter revealed that he had discovered that their elder brother Jude Okoye owned a secret company, Northside Music similar to what they had called Northside Entertainment.
According to Peter, it was the discovery that led to the involvement of the EFCC to find out the truth and that at no point did he (Peter) mention his twin, Paul.
“I want to set the record straight, I hereby challenge PAUL, or anyone else to show any petition that I, Peter Okoye, ever submitted against my twin brother PAUL or that has PAUL’S name on it.” he added.
Following their reconciliation in 2022, the duo recently fell out again as confirmed by Paul, who claimed Peter called the EFCC to arrest him (Paul).
