Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P, has alleged that his elder brother, Jude Okoye, and twin brother, Paul Okoye, also known as Rudeboy, pressured his wife, Lola Okoye, to terminate their first pregnancy and claimed their late mother once confronted her during a family meeting.
The allegations were made in the eighth episode of Mr P’s ongoing video series chronicling the long-running rift within the Okoye family.
His claims came as Rudeboy reacted to another allegation in the same episode that their late mother, Josephine Okoye, mistreated Lola during a family meeting held years ago.
Responding in a brief post shared on his X account on Friday, Rudeboy wrote:
“Unfortunately, you’re not here to defend yourself. Continue resting, Mum.”
In the video released on Thursday, Mr P recounted a meeting held at his Omole residence shortly after the birth of his son, alleging that their late mother, Jude, Paul, Tony and some pastors gathered to confront him and his wife over their relationship.
He said, “When we moved into Omole, our mom came to visit. My son was about five or six months old. When my mom visited, I gave her the master bedroom and moved into Jude’s room. I was expecting my mom to ask, ‘How is your new baby?’ My mom didn’t ask. She just said, ‘How is Lola? I hope she’s fine.’ She said, ‘Can you tell her to come?’ I said, ‘Okay, do you want to see the baby?’ She said, ‘No. Let her come first.’

“Then Lola was living on the Island. How do you expect me to tell Lola my mom wanted to see her and ask her not to come with the baby? I had to lie to Lola not to come with the baby because we had fumigated the house.”
Mr P said Lola arrived at the residence without their baby and was led into the master bedroom, where the family meeting was already in progress.
He alleged that neither of them was offered a seat during the gathering.
“Everybody was seated… I went to call Lola. When she entered the room, nobody stood up or said, ‘Lola, sit down.’ Nobody even bothered to welcome her properly. Lola and I just sat on the floor.”
Mr P alleged that their mother then told his wife, “Young woman, we the Okoye family have decided that you should leave our son alone.”
He continued, “I said, ‘What is going on?’ A few days earlier, Lola and I had had a small quarrel, so she looked at me thinking maybe I had planned this to evict the relationship. She said, ‘Babe, what’s going on?’ I asked my mum the same thing. Next thing, Jude said, ‘Leave our brother alone.’ I looked at Jude’s face.”
He further claimed that Jude later picked up a photograph of his infant son and made a derogatory remark in Igbo, which Lola understood to mean the child was a “bastard.”
“Lola started crying. The pastors tried to calm her. They pushed Lola out of the house,” he alleged.
Mr P also accused Jude and Rudeboy of trying to stop Lola from keeping her pregnancy, alleging that they questioned the paternity of the unborn child through an anonymous email.
“Nothing that Jude and Paul didn’t do for Lola to take that pregnancy out,” he alleged.
According to him, their late mother later accepted that the child was his biological son and directed his brothers to apologise, but he said the apology never came before she died.
Mr P also rejected claims that Lola had a strained relationship with their late mother, maintaining that she cared for her until her death.
“When my mom was sick… Lola stayed with her in the hospital till midnight and took the pastors back home every day for over two months,” he said.
He further alleged that before their mother’s death, she instructed Paul and Jude to apologise to him, but they never did.
