P-Square the full story, my commentary and why things may never remain the same


Nothing last for ever except for God who has no beginning or end. The media today is saturated with the Psquare saga or story. While I am not particularly very bothered about it, I am also very interested in pointing out a few things from the story.

1. May be Jude made the first mistake- According to the story below, every one is begging Jude to try and keep the brothers together. How will he do that since he was the first to point the fact to the public on what is happenings amongst the brothers. Jude was the first to roll out a tweet pointing to this separation, how will he again be the one to bring Paul and Peter together?  Perhaps he can, but will things ever remain the same? He was the center of p square and you know what happens when the center can no longer hold....things fall apart.

2. When a woman shows up, things change-when a woman comes into a place, the status quo never remains the same. It must shift either to the right or to the left...good or bad. I simply just love women. Taking a position is their birth right. No middle line except they want it. it's not in my place to point accusing fingers here, but I have heard of cases where brothers fought over one person disrespecting the other ones wife. When you have two strong brothers, who did things together like p square did and have done over time disagreeing over a woman, things will never remain the same again. Imagine Peter claiming that Jude has been disrespecting his wife for years. One big lesson here, when your friend or brother decides to follow a way when it comes to a woman, all you owe him is prayers. You can't do more as every other thing you say or do can be used against you. If you know the role women have played over the years in helping a man stand or fall, you will ask Samson in the bible before joking with a woman. A woman can build, but if she decides to destroy, even R Kelly knows that when a woman us fed up there us nothing you can do about it.  As long as the brothers disagreed over a woman...things are bound never to remain the same. Even if they make up, the stain will remain. Women change things for better or for worse. 

3. The place and respect of the mother- Some did argue that it was their mother , much more than whatever Jude did that kept the brothers together. How true, I can't assert. The place of a mother in keeping a family together can never be down played. Even at their age, it was said that their mother played a great role in guiding the brothers. It is believed that, it was out of this respect and reverence for their mother, that the marriage of Peter did not take place while their mother was alive,since the claim was that their mother did not approve of the marriage. But she is dead and resting now. Does Her absence mean that things will never remain the same again?

4. Things people say-it amazes me that people never learn from the things which happen to others. Its even more sad, when it affects a group like P square which arguably is the best performing group in Africa. They should know by now, that people will be interested in their break up . As long as those people are jealous of their success, they will want them apart. Imagine an adult saying, people are telling him he has become a dancer in P square. Who listens to such crab?  Talk is free and that is why any one will run their mouth. The sad part is when we allow what is said affect us. As long as the brothers listen to what outsiders say...things will never remain the same again.

5. A lot will be affected if they split- in Nigeria and in Africa, people did not come to know Peter as P square or Paul alone as P Square. When people came to a show, they went to see Peter and Paul ( P square perform) . Going or wanting to go solo is not the issue, but trust me, P square will die even if they go solo and come back to sing together again. Obviously one will make it more than the other and things will never remain the same again. They will have issues in the area of all their endorsement deals like the one from glo. Glo for example signed P square and not Peter or Paul. That deal will go and if it were some companies, they could be sued for breach of contract and made to pay dearly. So some one should let them know, that they will need to burry their anger and move on. If they separate , things will never be the same again for them.

This is just saying a bit. Taking your private life, disagreement and issues to social media merely creates news for bloggers and journalist. It helps nothing. It pays to keep what is private as private and what is public as public. Throwing this to the media is an indication that though they became big with their bank accounts , P square remained immature in their mentality. Mature people will agree to disagree and disagree to agree and not even the walls in their home will know about their disagreement. I wish them the very best whether together or apart.



SAD: The End Of P-Square [Full Story]

                 
The drama coming out of the PSquare household is getting really serious. On Friday, Jude shared a tweet that sparked fears that all is not well with Africa’s beloved singing duo.Yesterday, a source very close to the artiste has revealed that not only are the twins fighting, Peter Okoye wants out of P-Square and they have even gone as far as inviting a lawyer to divide their fortune. As of right now, Peter Okoye doesn’t want anything to do with P-Square.He has moved out of Squareville mansion in Omole where he lived with his brothers for years and now lives in Lekki Phase 1 with his wife Lola Omotayo and their children.Here’s what the source, an industry person who knows what’s been going on, said:“Yes they fought this week. Peter even left a mark on Paul’s left eye. But the fight wasn’t during rehearsal, which rehearsal? Peter has refused to do anything P-Square for weeks now. Forget that he was at his brother’s wedding, things are not good between them right now. They were even invited to perform at president Jonathan’s wedding but they didn’t go.Peter wants out. He said Paul and Jude are sidelining him. That if they push out 200 songs, 199 would be songs Paul did. That people are now calling him a dancer in P-Square. Peter is really angry. He’s even the cool and friendly one between the brothers but he is not himself right now. And then he accused his brother Jude of disrespecting his wife.Peter and Jude haven’t spoken in weeks. Peter said Jude has been disrespecting Lola for years and he was done tolerating the BS. In fact Peter said that not only is Lola older than Jude, but that she’s also pregnant and Jude was upsetting a pregnant woman. If you notice Jude didn’t attend their wedding last year despite the fact that he was in Nigeria. Jude asked Peter why he didn’t marry Lola when their mother was alive. Jude said it’s his wife that is pushing him and they will need to pray for him. In fact nobody in the Okoye family likes Lola and they didn’t support the marriage. The brothers are really angry at each other. The police is even involved. This week, either the commissioner of police or someone from his office visited their house.The worst part is that they have invited lawyer to come and share property o. They want to share everything. The lawyer was at their house I think on Thursday. Peter said no more P-Square joint ventures. You know they own everything together, including a house in Omole, Parkview and Atlanta. Except something is done fast P-Square is about to be finished. But I know that people have been intervening and begging them to reconsider, that they are the biggest musical duo in Africa. Nobody will benefit if they split. The power to make money is in their togetherness.It is Jude people are begging to keep the brothers together, but after what he tweeted yesterday, it may truly be over for P-Square. Jude has really tried for his brothers, for him to give up may mean it’s over for them. He practically put his entire life on hold for his brothers. Even sold his first car to shoot their first video but all that is about go come to an end like he tweeted. The only thing that can save the situation is if by a miracle Jude and Lola settle their differences but I don’t see that happening.- See more at: http://akpraise.com/2014/04/20/sad-the-end-of-p-square-full-story/#sthash.avAzBM6t.dpuf
