Jude Okoye arrested by the EFCC

According to the report published by Stella Dimorkorkus, the brothers' problems started after Peter approached his twin Paul and their elder brother Jude Okoye with a business proposal.

The report states that a company approached Peter to acquire the group's music catalogue but on one condition.

When the company demanded back-end access to the group's royalties from 2007, it was found that Jude Okoye had been embezzling the duo's money through a shell company.
