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 P-Square and the ongoing dispute over the group’s business affairs.
According to him, the fresh suit is separate from the ongoing case involving Northside Music and government authorities, where he insisted he is only a witness.
“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 P-Square songs,” Peter said.
The singer alleged that during the recent proceedings, Jude, with the support of his twin brother, Paul Okoye, sought an order to restrain him from performing P-Square songs.
Peter also rejected Jude’s claim that he brought P-Square to Lagos in 2005 and, by that claim, should be regarded as the owner of the group.
He argued that P-Square had already released its first album in 2003 and had been performing for years before Jude allegedly became involved in the group’s affairs.
“In Jude’s claim, you said you brought P-Square to Lagos in 2005, so automatically that makes you the owner of P-Square. P-Square’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 asked.
Peter further claimed that Jude was still in school at the time and accused him of presenting an inaccurate version of events before the court.
“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 P-Square,” he added.
The singer’s comments mark the latest twist in the prolonged dispute among the Okoye brothers over the ownership, management, royalties and business interests connected to the P-Square brand.
The renewed allegations have generated fresh reactions online, with many fans expressing concern over the deepening rift between the brothers.
As of the time of filing this report, Jude Okoye had yet to publicly respond to Peter’s latest claims regarding the alleged court move to stop him from performing P-Square songs.
