Paul Okoye Confirms P-Square Split, Plans Solo Career
P-Square, the iconic Nigerian music duo, has played a significant role in the commercialization and global spread of Nigerian pop music. In a recent interview with City FM, Paul Okoye, one half of the duo, disclosed that he and his twin brother Peter have parted ways. When asked about the current status of P-Square, Paul confirmed the split, citing creative differences and Peter’s decision to leave the group.
Paul revealed that Peter communicated his intention to quit both through a message and in person. Peter also requested that the split be kept private, a request Paul disagreed with, fearing backlash if he resumed his solo career as Rudeboy without explanation. Paul also mentioned that Peter had filed a petition with the EFCC against him and their older brother Jude, further straining their relationship. Despite being cleared of any financial wrongdoing, Paul expressed his desire to move forward with his solo career, boasting a backlog of over 200 songs and asserting that he wrote 99% of P-Square’s tracks.
The duo, who reunited in 2021 and released new music, including ‘Jaiye’ and ‘Find Somebody,’ now face another separation, marking a low point in their relationship. Paul emphasized his need to explain the situation to their fans, aiming to avoid being labeled the villain as he transitions back to his solo career.
Son of Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, Seyi Tinubu, reacts to public outcry and states that Nigerians should be patient with the president as he works on economic reforms.
“We’re asking you all to have faith in Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu. He is already driving this country in a direction this country has never ever seen, and I continue to pray for his life and his second term.”
He added “This is a man who has come in and has seen cracks. Instead of just trying to pass by and waiting for the cracks to continue to spread, he’s actually trying to fix them.”
Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan reacts to President Bola Tinubu’s statement regarding insecurity in Nigeria.
It can be noted that the president addressed insecurity in the country, and many Nigerians reacted and expressed frustration over what they described as a lack of understanding of what is really going on.
“The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces was asked about the insecurity issues that have gone further to claim lives, chase people out of their homes, and leave school children and teachers as hostages to bandits. The president was asked about insecurity; unfortunately, he couldn’t give an answer. Instead, he started talking about holy books and how Abraham took Isaac to the bush to sacrifice.”
Nigerian actress Ese Eriata speaks on relationships and advises women that they do not have to retaliate by cheating back when betrayed by their partners.
She stated that doing so only causes more pain. “Cheating back will never give you closure. The moment you do it, you return to the same painful feeling of betrayal your husband caused you.”
“Not only that, but you also end up proving to yourself that you do not value yourself enough to heal properly. Instead, you begin expecting someone else to fill that emotional vacuum, but the truth is, they never really do.”
