Tuesday, July 1, 2025 - Singer Peter Okoye has responded to his older brother Jude after the music executive made fun of him, singer Cynthia Morgan, and other musicians who he claimed had left his record label and gone broke.
The music executive knocked Peter, his former signee Cynthia
Morgan, and other former signees in a post he shared on June 27. He claimed
that they became avaricious after making money off of his platform, left his
label, went bankrupt, and are now looking for someone to blame. He said that he
was accused of a number of things, including money laundering, and that he
expected all of these things to break him, but he is refusing to be blackmailed
or comply with demands.
Peter has responded to this on social media.
In an Instagram post this afternoon, Peter, who described
Jude as an "Agbaya," made the case that respect is something that
must be earned and is never bestowed. He rejected Jude's assertion that he had
shoulder-supported him during his tenure as PSquare manager. According to
Peter, Jude worked as a manager and was fired, just like the two people who
came before him.
Peter said that since going solo and leaving the PSquare
band, his journey has been more peaceful and fruitful on both a personal and
financial level.
His post reads
‘’JUST
BECAUSE YOU’RE OLDER, DOESN’T MEAN YOU DESERVE RESPECT. RESPECT IS EARNED NOT
GIVEN. Calling me broke or wishing I was broke has been your wish. These are
the exact same words you told the EFCC officials. And you ended up getting
locked up in prison. Of course, again you have to come up with another
narrative “Broke” let’s set the record straight, you were shouldering who? May
be them but not me. Agbaya, you were employed as a manager by Peter and Paul
PSQUARE, and you got sacked the same as the other 2 managers before you.
Period!
I understand
this may not sit well with some people, but truth be told, aside from my
businesses, what I now earn on my own as a solo artiste today is more than what
I used to earn after splitting three ways as PSQUARE plus the so-called
manager. I am talking about both shows and endorsements. It really makes me
question what’s the point of sharing with people who stole from you, betrayed
you, and still discriminate against your efforts!?
This solo
journey has been a blessing—more rewarding and profitable, both financially and
personally, no doubt. And it has also brought peace of mind. And if you don’t
relate or it doesn’t make sense to you, no worries—it’s not meant to. But I am
grateful. But again, despite being in court! Una never still answer the
question, UNA THIEF ABI UNA NO THIEF ? Ndi ori.
I have
stopped playing nice and being the matured one while getting disrespected!
I started
treating people exactly how they treat me.
Respect me, I respect you!
Ignore me, I ignore you!
Cross me, I cut you off, simple.
Life isn’t about begging people
for fair treatment!
It’s about matching energy;
it is what it is. Tit for tat!
I stayed real, I stayed strong,
and I stopped letting people walk over me. PETER OKOYE.''
