Henry Okoye, the elder brother of former Psquare members Peter and Paul Okoye, has shared his perspective on the ongoing crisis within the Okoye family.
Speaking in an interview in a video circulating online, Henry claimed he financially supported Peter and Paul during the early days of their music career, when the duo was still struggling to establish themselves.
He alleged that Jude Okoye only became involved after Psquare started making money and later took over as their manager.
Henry also described Paul as the most caring among the siblings in the past, but claimed the singer’s attitude towards the family changed over time.
He suggested that Jude’s influence could have played a role in the change, while also accusing his elder brother of preventing him from receiving an agreed 20 per cent share.
“I am senior to both Jude and P-Square. Jude is my brother, but he is a very ba*d person. He is very w!ck£d. I was the one who started sponsoring P-Square when they had nothing. Jude only came in when P-Square started making money and said he wants to manage them.”
According to Henry, their late mother had initially objected to Jude becoming the twins’ manager because she allegedly knew his character.
“My mother originally disagreed because she knows Jude’s ba*d character. But one of our siblings begged her. She said that she knew the kind of character Jude has.”
He further claimed that the family’s relationship with Peter and Paul had deteriorated, alleging that most of the siblings no longer communicate with the former music duo.
“We are eight in number and P-Square no longer talks to the rest of the family. We didn’t know that it was Jude that was causing the problem. He is never a good person.”

Henry also recalled an alleged period when he spent two months in hospital, claiming that Jude never contacted him despite being aware of his condition.
“He’s my brother. But he’s very b*ad. Even when I was s!ck and admitted to the hospital for two months Jude never called. He knows because Peter and Paul used to call me.”
The businessman also expressed concern about their youngest sibling, claiming that she was struggling in Lagos and accusing Jude and Paul of not doing enough to support her.
“Our lastborn is in Lagos suff£ring, and Jude and Paul don’t care about her. But Peter is trying sha. Peter is trying.”
While criticising Jude, Henry said he wanted to separate Paul from the allegations, noting that he could not explain what had caused the singer’s alleged change in behaviour.
“But especially Jude. Lemme keep Paul apart. Because I dont know if Jude did ju*ju on Paul.”
He added, “Because when it comes to the Okoye’s family, Paul used to be the nicest person before before. I just don’t know what happened or how to put am….”
Henry’s comments come amid renewed public revelations and accusations involving the former Psquare members and Jude, as their longstanding family and business disputes continue to attract attention.
