Nigerian music legend Innocent Ujah Idibia, aka 2baba, has joined the list of top industry personalities reacting to the viral feud between the music duo Psquare (Paul Okoye, Peter Okoye) and their elder brother EugeneJude Okoye.
In a series of previous reports, the three brothers have been at loggerheads with one another over unresolved issues surrounding their music business.
The long-running dispute between the Okoye siblings, which shows no signs of ending soon, heated up when Rudeboy announced P-Square's most recent separation in an interview with City FM.
During the interview, Rudeboy said that his brother, Peter (Mr P), had filed a petition with the EFCC accusing him and his brother, Jude, of financial misappropriation of PSquare funds.
However, in an open letter, Peter explained his side of the event and claimed that Paul and Jude collaborated to harm his image. He further claimed that Jude covertly formed a firm with his wife to divert PSquare's finances.
Similarly, Jude, the then-manager and director of the now-defunct P-Square, addressed the group split and royalties in an Instagram Live, denying Peter's claims.
2baba weighs on Psquare's fight
On his Instagram story, 2baba shared a remixed version of one of the twins' hit "Forever" to accompany his message.
The African queen hitmaker confessed his love for the trio to support each of them amid their conflict.
Jude Okoye pained by Peter P-Square claims, says 40% of the group's royalty was his: "It's too much"
