Singer Paul Okoye, popularly known as Rudeboy, has responded after his twin brother, Peter Okoye (Mr P), alleged that their late mother mistreated his wife, Lola, during the latest episode of his ongoing video series detailing the family’s long-running feud.
In a post shared on his social media pages on Friday, Rudeboy appeared to defend their late mother, writing, “Unfortunately, you’re not here to defend yourself. Continue resting, Mum.”
His reaction followed the release of the eighth episode of Mr P’s tell-all series, in which the singer recounted a family meeting at his Omole residence where he claimed their late mother, Josephine Okoye, alongside brothers Jude, Paul and Tony, as well as family pastors, confronted him and his wife over their relationship.
According to Mr P, “Everybody was seated… I went to call Lola. When she entered the room, nobody stood up or said, ‘Lola, sit down.’ Nobody even bothered to welcome her properly. Lola and I just sat on the floor.”
He further alleged that their mother told his wife, “Young woman, we the Okoye family have decided that you should leave our son alone.”
Mr P also claimed that Jude and Rudeboy opposed Lola’s pregnancy and circulated an anonymous email questioning the paternity of his unborn son.
“Nothing that Jude and Paul didn’t do for Lola to take that pregnancy out,” he alleged.
The singer said their late mother later acknowledged that his son was indeed his biological child and instructed Paul and Jude to apologise, but according to him, “the apology never came” before her death.
Mr P also rejected claims that Lola disliked their mother, saying she cared for her during illness.
“When my mom was sick… Lola stayed with her in the hospital till midnight and took the pastors back home every day for over two months,” he said.
While Rudeboy did not directly address the specific allegations, his brief tribute to their late mother was widely interpreted as a response to Mr P’s claims.
The latest exchange marks another chapter in the long-running dispute involving the former P-Square members and their elder brother, Jude Okoye, over the group’s breakup, royalties, company management and family relationships.
Jude has denied key allegations made by Mr P, insisting many of the issues are already before the court, while Rudeboy’s management has maintained that the singer remains focused on his music career and will not engage in public back-and-forth over family matters.
