Peter Okoye Speaks On Clash With His Brother | Calls It “Family Quarrel”

 Other half of the P-Square duo, Peter Okoye has come out to speak on his marriage, Kids, music and also the recent social media clash he had with his brother, Paul Okoye… He says it’s normal “family quarrel”. They have made up now.





Read excerpts from his interview withVanguard Allure:
How does it feel being married?
It feels great. I won’t say I’m more responsible now because I have been responsible long before getting married. I have two kids. One way marriage has changed me is, I now know what our parents went through in raising us.For me, I’m now more composed. I try not to worry too much. I’m more focused because I need to work hard to look after my family.
Has your life changed since you became a father and has it, in any way, affected you and your career?
Yes, absolutely! My life has changed but it hasn’t affected my life. I still show my six packs. I still kiss people in the crowd. I still take my semi-nude pictures, travel etc. I’m still me and it’s all still part of the business.
On singing in Igbo
Sometimes, if we don’t sing in Igbo, our people will crucify us (laughs). If you listen to P-Square, you will hear Igbo, English, Pidgin English; even French we try. For us, English is a universal language and I’m not singing in Igbo to try and please my people but I like to inculcate my culture through music.
On rumours that P-Square is planning to split or has split.
Not at all. We just had a minor quarrel just like everyone who has siblings would. We fight and make-up; we fought many times last year but we still go on stage and perform and nobody knows. I can’t come out and say Paul and I have never fought.It’s like a couple who has been married for over 20 years would come out and say they have never fought. It’s impossible; we are humans. It’s a normal thing
Peter Okoye Speaks On Clash With His Brother
On rumours their brother, Jude has resigned as Psquare’s manager.

It’s the same thing; family quarrels. We argued and made-up. He didn’t resign. We are still working together and, even when we quarrel, we don’t allow it to collide with business. There is a line drawn there.
You guys portray an image of living luxurious lives with jets and lavish cars. How has this affected your image in the public eye?
It didn’t affect us. As a matter of fact, it made us even stronger. A lot of people think we are showing off but the truth is if we were not showing off, you would not know what we are worth. If you see me on okada, you won’t pay me ten million to come and do a concert. They say, everything we do – people post it; everything we have, we show off and that we are not Dangote. My dear, Dangote is not in showbiz. Whatever we do, we do because that’s the way it’s supposed to be. What we do is show-business. It’s a show and it’s business so that’s what we do.

Culled....

EXPOSED!!! MEET THE LATEST FEMALE SCAMMER PARADING HERSELF AS CUSTOMS OFFICIAL

These are screenshots from her Facebook profile.  Name:Agbor Chidinma Age:27 years(born on 15th November, 1989. She parades herself as a custom official who has worked for over 5years with customs. But how she and her cohorts have managed to carry out nefarious activities and dwindling innocent Nigerians of their hard earned money baffles me.  They post online adverts on facebook with robust claims about car auctioning (impounded cars seized by customs). The prices are ridiculously low thus Innocent Nigerian Citizens who are having difficulty surviving and need cheaper alternatives fall prey to their cheap scam.  Recently, they duped someone of millions of naira and the last one that broke the camel's back is their last transaction with promises that the cars will arrive with complete papers. The victim in tears narrated her own side of the story at the police command in Owerri and it was evident she was scammed of a huge sum of money.  This i...
