Peter Okoye has cut ties with his family over a fraud case
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye, one half of the now defunct music group P-Square, has stated that he no longer has any relationship with his brothers, Paul and Jude Okoye.
Peter shared this on X while addressing the ongoing court case involving Jude Okoye, who is being investigated over an alleged money laundering case that includes over ₦1.38 billion, $1 million, and £34,000.
Peter, who testified in court as the first prosecution witness, reacted to the case being postponed.
He accused Jude’s publicist of trying to twist the facts by claiming Peter had not been honest during the court hearing.
According to Peter, the truth will come out eventually, and he believes that “family does not steal from family.”
In response to a fan who tried to remind him that family remains important no matter the issues, Peter stated that he had completely cut ties with his brothers. He explained that real family is based on loyalty, not just blood relations.
He added that true love is not manipulative, and no family member should steal from another. Peter said that keeping quiet about the issues for over two decades nearly destroyed him, but now he’s putting his peace of mind first.
“We are no longer family at this point! Family is blood related, but the real family is loyalty. ‘Like I said before, don’t let family be the reason you’re drowning in silence. I did , for over 20 years. And it almost cost me everything.’ But now I know better, love doesn’t manipulate, loyalty doesn’t betray, and family does not steal from you.
“Family that steals and breaks you isn’t family at all. Real family doesn’t drain you, shame you, discriminate against you, or ignore your pain. My sanity matters. My mental health is a priority. If it costs my mental health, then it’s too expensive. I disown them,” he noted.
