Paul ‘Rudeboy‘ Okoye, the singer, has slammed Joe Igbokwe, the Nigerian author, over his comment on the rift between him and Peter ‘Mr P‘ Okoye, his twin brother.
The Okoye brothers have been in the news since their controversial split in 2016.
The twins parted ways after a disagreement on the role of Jude Okoye, their older brother who happened to be their immediate past manager.
But in November 2021, the duo ended their five-year feud. They also staged their first joint performance as Psquare.
However, their latest split was confirmed by Rudeboy who claimed his twin brother was behind his recent arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Wading into the matter in a Facebook post, Igbokwe berated the twin brothers for being “unable to settle their family dispute”.
The author also wondered if “there are no elders in their family” while describing their rift as a “shame”.
“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? etc,” he wrote.
“This is shame. It pains me to no end. Now, are there no elders in the family? This is success without brains. Education without character. Make shame catch us small na. When Gold rust what will Iron do? Ndi ara akwu eke. Awon werey.”
However, Rudeboy took to his Instagram page to tackle Igbokwe. The singer also hurled abusive words at the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain.

Skales the Nigerian singer has addressed his relationship with his colleague Wizkid.
Wizkid and Skales were former label mates at Empire Mates Entertainment (EME), Banky W’s record label.
Skales joined EME in 2010 but left in 2014 following the expiration of his four-year contract while Wizkid signed out in 2014 after five years with the music label.
In 2015, the singers traded abuses on social media in a battle that saw them cast aspersions at each other.
In a recent X post, Skales lamented how people switch up on him after attaining fame.
“You know how many people I have given a platform and when they made it , they switched on me but I’m still here and still being blessed by God … I’m unstoppable… I am from Kaduna with Edo in my blood … I am Martina’s son,” he wrote.
The tweet attracted varying reactions, with one user accusing Skales of switching up on Wizkid by “becoming friends with his enemies”.
“You switched on wiz too, became friends with his enemies so as to spite him…Forever an underdog, Werey,” the user wrote.
In his response, the 33-year-old argued that Wizkid “never liked him”. He added that they were just colleagues at EME.
“I never ever switched on him … he doesn’t like me … we were never close friends either but eme members … so rest,” he wrote.
“I have never hated anyone not even your fav fam… I have always believed success is the best revenge even if it takes me 20 years … working on my self and bringing out the best version of me is more important to me so rest.
“Na una dey bring him matter come anytime wey I dey yarn my own so I gasto clear all the lies wey dem dey push hope him go talk wetin I do am … I no want make him like me either.”
I never ever switched on him … he doesn’t like me … we were never close friends either but eme members … so rest https://t.co/eddqkX1fXi

Blackface, the Nigerian dancehall singer, has called for a reunion of Plantashun Boiz, a defunct music group.
Formed in 2000 with 2Baba and Faze, Plantashun Boiz disbanded in 2004 but briefly reunited in 2007 for an album.
In a recent Instagram post, Blackface shared a nostalgic photo of the trio.
He also accompanied the post the question: “‘To be or not to be?’ @fazealone @official2baba @blackfacenaija @plantashunboizofficial, why not?”
He urged fans to join the mission, emphasizing that there is “unity is strength, not division”.
“#plantashunboiz The question now is “To be or not to be?” @fazealone @officialzbaba @blackfacenaija @plantashunboizofficial and why?” Blackface asked.
“My people oya make una talk put mouth for this matter! We are on a mission for world peace and it’s not a small-time thing! Unity is strength and not division Let’s go champs.”
Since 2015, Blackface constantly tackled 2Baba for recording 2004 hit ‘African Queen’ which he claimed he wrote.
In 2017, he argued that 2Baba “sabotaged” his career in the music industry.
But last year, Blackface extended an olive branch to 2Baba after asking the ‘African Queen’ hitmaker to forgive him for his “wrongdoings, knowingly or unknowingly”.
“So it is time for us to go to the next level. I want everybody to know this one. It is time to forget all these things that have been going on,” he had said.

TG Omori has responded to claims that his music industry network did not offer him financial aid during his health crisis.
Omori, who has been battling kidney disease, underwent a transplant on August 26 at St. Nicholas Hospital in Lagos.
The music video director said he went into surgery three times for the transplant, yet it was not successful.
Portable, a singer, berated celebrities in the heat of public discourse around Omori’s health, claiming they did not fund the treatment.
He compared the purported lack of support to the donations made to Bobrisky, the crossdresser, who was jailed for currency abuse.
Portable further described the camaraderie in Nigeria’s music industry as “fake”.
“TG Omori has a kidney problem and celebrities are not donating money or kidneys for him,” he said.
“But Victor Osimhen and others donated money for Bobrisky who has no value. The industry is full of fake love.”
In response, TG Omori clarified that he had received support from industry colleagues even before his health issues became public.
“All I needed was your prayers, moral support, and love. This I am grateful to have gotten in abundance,” the video director said.
“The industry and friends have been solidly behind me months before it all came public. Please ignore the clout-desperate dogs.”
