Peter Okoye Breaks Silence: ‘Mohbad’s Case Triggered This Madness

Nigerian music star Peter Okoye has strongly criticized his brothers, Paul and Jude Okoye, following accusations that he gave false information to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

In court, Jude’s legal representative claimed Peter’s statement to the EFCC was riddled with lies — particularly regarding his alleged lack of access to Northside Music Ltd’s bank accounts and discrepancies in his academic qualifications.

The lawyer also questioned Peter’s assertions about being excluded from company decisions and not receiving his rightful royalties.

Reacting via his Instagram Story, Peter referenced past controversies involving Northside Music and artists like May D and Cynthia Morgan, asserting that the truth would eventually come out.

He tied the recent chaos to his decision to stop staying silent after the tragic saga of the late singer Mohbad, which he said opened his eyes to the dangers of keeping quiet in the face of injustice.

Peter wrote:
“Exactly what I’ve been saying — they’re trying to paint me as a liar. I’m not May D or Cynthia Morgan. I’m Peter Okoye — the one and only rock of the Okoyes. The truth will come out. Did you steal or not?”

He continued:
“After seeing what happened to Mohbad and how everything has unfolded, I made a vow to never be the ‘mature one’ again. That’s what caused all this madness. I was just trying to keep the peace.”

Peter added that whether people love or hate him, he will continue to speak his truth.
“I now realize I was used during the so-called reunion in November 2021. But since the matter is in court, I’ll wait for the right moment to reveal everything. Family should never steal from family — but did you steal, or not?”
