Again, Peter Okoye responds to song theft allegation by his twin brother Paul Okoye
Peter Okoye, one-half of disbanded music group P Square has again taken to social media to respond to song theft allegations leveled against him by his twin brother, Paul Okoye.
Recall that Paul Okoye aka Rudeboy recently accused his twin brother Peter Okoye aka Mr P of releasing a song he wrote and sang without his express permission.
In a post shared on his Instagram page, Paul claimed that the new song released by Peter was one of the songs he (Paul) submitted based on an agreement that required that they both presented six songs each for a music project.
Paul, however, asserts in his post on social media that he brought his own songs, and with the help of his management, his brother (Peter) went and independently released one of his songs.
He also asserted in the social media post that the song belonged to him, saying that the producer had stolen it and that the song was meant to be on his upcoming album.

In response to his twin brother’s accusations of song theft, Peter said on his Instagram page that Paul and their older brother Jude are making every effort to remove the song from music outlets, but he will battle until the end.
‘‘Call us names… Call us childish it is fine. I understand but anyone that says anything false about me and I have evidence, then I have a right to defend myself. Let’s stay WINNING.
‘‘You claimed you wrote the song and you and you don’t known any @calypso60music. Then how come @calypso60music and I are now telling you what to sing?
‘‘And you still have the audacity to call me OLORIBURUKU. SMH. Just for the record guys, Jude and Paul wrote through a lawyer and are doing everything possible to take the music down from all music platforms but I will fight till the end.
