Henry Okoye, the elder brother of the Nigerian music duo P-Square, has revealed that their late mother, Josephine Okoye, actively opposed Jude Okoye managing the popular musical act. This assertion offers a new perspective on the internal family dynamics that may have influenced the careers of the now-defunct group.
