Peter Okoye shares a blunt note from a waitress. He posted a screenshot of her DM on Instagram. She had queried his tip after a pricey meal.

The message claimed he came late and chilled at length. It added he spent a thousand dollars and tipped sixty. Okoye shared it via @peterpsquare amid Okoye family reunion pledge.
What the screenshot shows
The DM came from a profile named sandra.zubia. It questioned the tip size for a large bill. She ended with “Ridiculous,” plus a clown emoji.
Okoye replied with Pidgin, pressing his point with heat. He wrote, “Sometimes eh, dis Oyinbos no get sense”. He added, “For my own money again” with disbelief.
Tipping norms and swift reaction
In the US, tips often sit near fifteen to twenty percent. Servers say such sums help make up base pay. On this bill, sixty dollars equals about six percent.
Fans split fast in comments on X and Instagram. Some called the tip low given the pricey tab. Others said tips stay a choice, not a tax.
Okoye has faced cash talk before in public life. His brand thrives on bold views and frank replies. See also this Paul Okoye bills comment for wider context.
