Singer Peter Okoye has alleged that his elder brother and former manager, Jude Okoye, has initiated another legal battle aimed at stopping him from performing songs released under the Psquare brand.

Peter made the allegation in a video shared on his official social media page while responding to earlier claims by Jude regarding the ownership of Psquare and the ongoing dispute over the group’s business affairs.

According to Peter, the new lawsuit is separate from the ongoing case involving Northside Music and government authorities, stressing that he is only a witness in that matter.

“Jude served me a letter. We just had the hearing recently. During the hearing, the first thing they wanted to do was stop me from performing Psquare songs,” he said.

Peter further claimed that during the recent court proceedings, Jude, with the support of his twin brother Paul Okoye, sought an order preventing him from performing Psquare songs.

He also disputed Jude’s claim that he brought Psquare to Lagos in 2005, arguing that the group had already established its career years earlier.

“In Jude’s claim, you said you brought Psquare to Lagos in 2005, so automatically that makes you the owner of Psquare. Psquare’s first album came out in 2003. We’ve been singing for four to five years before that and even signed our first management contract. Where were you then?” Peter said.

Peter maintained that Jude was still in school at the time and insisted that the version of events being presented in court was inaccurate.

“You said you brought us to Lagos. Jude, we brought you to Lagos. I sold my car and paid for our first house. I still have the receipts. You and Paul ran away when there was nothing. I stayed back. Now, all of a sudden, you own Psquare,” he added.

The allegations come amid the prolonged dispute between the Okoye brothers over ownership of the Psquare brand, royalties and related business interests.

Jude Okoye has not publicly responded to Peter’s latest claims regarding the alleged lawsuit.
