  • Online personality Radiogad urged music executive Jude Okoye to step away from his brothers Peter and Paul Okoye (P-Square).
  • Radiogad believes Jude's involvement hinders the reconciliation of the music duo.
  • He suggested P-Square would be more successful if they reunited without Jude's management.

Online personality Destiny Ezeyim, widely known as Radiogad, has publicly called on music executive Jude Okoye to cease involvement in the affairs of his younger brothers, Peter and Paul Okoye, who formed the defunct music duo P-Square. Radiogad made this appeal in a video shared online, reacting to the ongoing public dispute between the Okoye brothers and Jude, which has sparked considerable controversy on social media.

Jude Okoye, what kind of elder brother are you? Why are you dividing your brothers? As your mother is no longer there, you are now the head of the family. You are supposed to coordinate your brothers.

โ€” RadiogadQuestioning Jude Okoye's role in the P-Square brothers' dispute.

Radiogad criticized Jude's role, particularly in light of allegations made by Peter in recent videos concerning the management of P-Square's business and finances. Addressing Jude directly, Radiogad questioned his actions as an elder brother and family head, urging him to allow Peter and Paul to resolve their differences. "Jude Okoye, what kind of elder brother are you? Why are you dividing your brothers? As your mother is no longer there, you are now the head of the family. You are supposed to coordinate your brothers," Radiogad stated.

I donโ€™t understand how a manager could get the same money as an artiste. Why is the manager sharing money inside the artisteโ€™s money?

โ€” RadiogadExpressing concern over financial management within P-Square's business.

The online personality also questioned the involvement of Judeโ€™s wife in the family business and raised concerns about the distribution of proceeds between the artists and their management. "I donโ€™t understand how a manager could get the same money as an artiste. Why is the manager sharing money inside the artisteโ€™s money?" he asked. Radiogad consequently urged Jude to relinquish his managerial responsibilities, suggesting that his departure could create an environment conducive to Peter and Paul reconciling.

Please step aside. Thank you for your services so far. We donโ€™t want you again. Step aside so Peter and Paul can reconcile.

Radiogad further argued that P-Square, despite their successful individual careers post-split, would achieve greater success if they reunited. "P-Square will conquer the world when they come back together. They are doing well apart, but they will do better when they come back together," he asserted, praising Peter as a "fantastic dancer" and Paul as a "fantastic vocalist." These comments follow a series of revelations by Peter (Mr P) detailing allegations about the management of the brothers' finances, business dealings, and family disputes, though Jude has previously denied some claims and indicated that business matters are in court.

P-Square will conquer the world when they come back together. They are doing well apart, but they will do better when they come back together.
