P-Square Split Again After Brief Reconciliation
Popular singer Paul Nonso Okoye, also known as Rudeboy, who is one-half of the now-defunct music duo P-Square, has vocalized his disapproval toward comments made by Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The controversy arose after Igbokwe openly criticized the brothers’ inability to manage their relationship despite being twins.
Paul Okoye recently confirmed that P-Square has split up once more. This separation comes barely three years after their reunion in 2021, following their initial breakup in 2016. The news has left fans and followers of the popular Nigerian duo deeply saddened.
Joe Igbokwe’s Controversial Remarks
Reacting to the latest split, Joe Igbokwe expressed his frustration on social media.
On his Facebook page, he criticized Paul and Peter Okoye for failing to maintain a harmonious relationship.
Igbokwe’s comments targeted multiple aspects of their personal and professional lives.
“So shameful that two twin brothers Paul and Peter cannot work together, cannot love one another, they cannot trust each other, they cannot think together, they cannot reason together, they cannot forgive each other, they cannot manage their wives, they cannot manage their success story, they cannot control their emotions, they cannot manage their internal contradictions, even their wives could not help matters, what about their parents, their brothers and sisters, their Nnaochie? This is a shame,” Igbokwe wrote.
He continued by expressing his disappointment in the absence of elder figures within the family to mediate the brothers’ issues.
In a mix of English and local language, he concluded, “This is success without brains. Education without character. Make shame catch us small na. When Gold rusts, what will Iron do? Ndi ara akwu eke. Awon werey.”
Paul Okoye Responds
These strong remarks did not sit well with Paul Okoye. Taking to Instagram, Paul fired back at the APC chieftain. He redirected the focus to the broader issues plaguing the country under Igbokwe’s party’s leadership.
“Joe Igbokwe, your papa! Elder wey mumu! Focus on the country when you put mouth scatter! People are hungry!” Paul wrote in a scathing rebuttal.
The exchange highlights ongoing tensions not just within the music duo but also brings political leaders into the fray.
Paul’s response indicates a reluctance to accept public criticism from political figures, especially when larger national issues are at stake.
As the drama unfolds, fans are left wondering about the future of P-Square and whether the brothers will ever reconcile their differences to bring back the music duo that has thrilled them for many years.
For now, the public discourse shifts between the personal conflicts of the music icons and the political rhetoric around Nigeria’s socio-economic challenges.
