In a surprising twist to the ongoing drama surrounding the defunct Afrobeats duo P-Square, billionaire Nigerian music executive Soso Soberekon has thrown a massive financial incentive into the ring. Soberekon has reportedly offered Peter Okoye a staggering N500 million to face his twin brother, Paul Okoye, in a highly anticipated celebrity boxing match.
A Sensational Offer on Stage
The jaw-dropping offer was made public during a live performance by Peter Okoye on Sunday night. A video currently circulating on social media platforms captures Soberekon standing amidst the enthusiastic crowd, holding up his mobile phone toward the stage where Peter was performing. On the screen, a bold, clear message read: “500 Million Naira to fight your twin in a boxing match.”
While Peter’s immediate reaction to the lucrative proposal remains unconfirmed, the viral moment has sparked a frenzy across social media, with fans and industry observers debating whether a physical face-off could finally settle the brothers’ long-standing differences.
The Roots of the P-Square Feud
This dramatic proposal comes at a time when tensions between the twin brothers are at an all-time high. The iconic music duo, widely recognized for pioneering modern Afrobeats, has been embroiled in a bitter, public financial and personal dispute.
The underlying issues of their latest fallout include:
- Allegations of Royalty Diversion: Peter has publicly accused his twin, Paul, and their older brother and former manager, Jude Okoye, of secretly diverting music royalties belonging to the group into private accounts.
- Legal and Financial Audits: The ongoing dispute has led to intense legal scrutiny and public back-and-forth statements, further widening the rift between the siblings.
- The Final Disbandment: This latest clash follows several previous breakups and brief, unsuccessful reunions, indicating a deep-seated fracture in both their personal and professional relationships.
Whether the brothers will entertain the idea of stepping into a boxing ring for a multi-million Naira payday remains to be seen. However, Soberekon’s bold pitch has undoubtedly added a theatrical new layer to one of Nigerian music’s most high-profile family feuds.
