Singer, Paul Okoye, popularly known as Rudeboy, has reacted after his twin brother, Peter Okoye (Mr P), alleged that their late mother mistreated his wife, Lola, during the latest episode of his ongoing tell-all series on the P-Square family feud.
In a post shared on his social media pages on Friday, Rudeboy appeared to respond to the allegations, writing, “Unfortunately, you’re not here to defend yourself. Continue resting, Mum.”
The post came after Mr P on Thursday released the eighth episode of his video series chronicling the long-running dispute within the Okoye family.
In the video, Mr P recounted a family meeting held at his Omole residence, where he claimed his late mother, Josephine Okoye, other family members and pastors confronted him and his wife over their relationship.
According to him, the incident took place after Lola had given birth to their son.
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.”

According to Mr P, after Lola arrived, a meeting was held in the master bedroom at the family’s Omole residence and attended by their mother, brothers Jude, Paul and Tony, as well as the pastors.
He claimed neither he nor his wife was offered a seat.
“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 interpreted as referring to the child as a “bastard.”
“Lola started crying. The pastors tried to calm her. They pushed Lola out of the house,” he alleged.
Mr P also alleged that before the confrontation, Jude and Rudeboy opposed Lola’s pregnancy and circulated an anonymous email questioning the paternity of his unborn son.
“Nothing that Jude and Paul didn’t do for Lola to take that pregnancy out,” he alleged.

Mr P, however, said their mother later admitted that his son was his biological child and asked his brothers to apologise to him, but claimed the apology never came before her death.
He also rejected claims that Lola disliked his late mother, alleging instead that she cared for her during an illness.
“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.
The singer also claimed that before her death, their mother asked Paul and their elder brother, Jude, to apologise to him, but they never did.
Rudeboy did not directly address the specific allegations, but his post was widely interpreted as a defence of their late mother.
The latest exchange marks another chapter in the long-running dispute involving the former P-Square members and their elder brother, Jude, over the collapse of the group’s reunion, royalties, company management and family relationships.
In previous episodes of his video series, Mr P accused Jude of financial misconduct, threatening his life and attempting to dispossess him of a jointly owned property in Atlanta.
Jude has denied key allegations, insisting many of the issues are already before the court.
Rudeboy has largely stayed out of the public exchanges.
His management recently said the singer remains focused on his music career and would not engage in public back-and-forth over family matters.
