P-Square brothers reconcile after feud

Tags


There appears to be truce after what was widely reported to be a major stand-off between Nigerian music duo P-Square.
It emerged last week that members of the group, Peter Okoye and Paul Okoye, who are also twin brothers had engaged in physical fight, an incident which nearly split the group.
Peter Okoye threatened to leave the group and they have even gone as far as inviting a lawyer to divide their fortune.
An adamant Peter had declared that he did not want anything to do with P-Square and was reported to have moved out of Squareville mansion in Omole where he lived with his brothers for years and now lives in Lekki Phase 1 with his wife Lola Omotayo and their children.
Reports later emerged that after several interventions, Peter gave a condition before he would agree to still stay in the group.  Peter is said to have stressed that his wife, Lola, must be accepted and respected by the family or risk total isolation from him.
An  insider was quoted by Nigeria's Vanguard to have said that: “Peter is tired of the long years he has had to plead with his family to accept the woman he has decided to spend the rest of his life with.
“He wants Lola to be welcomed in the family just as Anita (Paul’s wife) has been accepted irrespective of her tribe or age. This is his condition.”
There are indications that the duo have gone past their differences. Tweets monitored by Myjoyonline.com Friday suggest they may not split after all.
Peter Okoye ‏tweeted that: "FOREVER PSQUARE!" while Paul also tweeted: "PSQUARE! Stronger than Ever!!!"
Jude Okoye, Manager of the group and senior brother of the duo said: "Family is everything indeed. Long live PSQUARE!"
