Veteran Afrobeats singer, Peter Okoye has revealed that the breakup of the iconic music duo PSquare was largely influenced by fans’ behaviour.
Speaking at the AYLIVE show, Peter explained that persistent comparisons between him and his twin brother, Paul Okoye, bred tension and inflated egos within the group.
He expressed that fans often picked sides, favouring one brother over the other, which deepened divisions and ultimately led to the group’s split.
He said, “Fans are the reasons Psquare no dey together today. Two brothers dey do one thing, ona dey talk say one better pass one, e con enter one head, he begin misbehave. If ona like make ona dey go house, I no send una.”
PSquare was a Nigerian musical duo composed of twin brothers Peter and Paul Okoye.
Formed in 1997, the group rose to fame with hits like “E No Easy,” “Bizzy Body,” and “Personally.”
Known for their energetic performances and catchy Afrobeats, PSquare became one of Africa’s most successful musical acts.
In 2017, PSquare officially disbanded after years of internal conflicts and public feuds.
The twins had been managed by their elder brother, Jude Okoye, who also owned a significant share of their company, PClassic Label.
Disputes over management, finances, and creative direction strained their relationship.
