Is Peter Okoye Secretly Dumping His Brothers, Psquare?
|
Peter
has just concluded a deal with telecom giant, Globacom, to power his
pet project tagged “Dance with Peter” without his twin brother anywhere
in the picture. Big deal? It would have really been a big deal if he had
not only recently clinched another deal with Olympian Milk, without his
brother in the detail again. Maybe, this would have been less
disturbing if his brother, Paul, were snapping up deals of his own. He
is not. His only life-line, as it appears, is only his tie to the group,
which Peter seems to be inadvertently running away from. The defence
on Peter’s side, as some people have mooted, is that he is the
extrovert one while his brother is the introvert. But is Psquare
extrovert or introvert?
On his solo ‘Dance with Peter’ reality TV
show project, he claimed it was a dream he has been nurturing for more
than five years. Kaffy, Ehis and Nosa, the Psquare choreographer are all
on board without Paul in sight. Doesn’t Paul know anything about
dancing?
When he clinched the Olympian Mike endorsement he said
it had nothing to do with Psquare, likening himself to a footballer who
plays for a team and gets solo endorsement with a separate company. Has
Peter really forgiven his brothers, Paul, and Jude, their manager?
During the problem that nearly tore them apart, Peter accused his
brothers of disrespecting his wife and vowed never to forgive them for
it. There was also a hint that because he is the passive member in the
group the brothers could do without him. Some reports claimed that the
real brain of the group is Paul, who does most of the singing and
composing while Peter is a mere dancer, who tags along only because of
his blood tie and dance skills.
At the peak of their rift, a
report claims Peter didn’t want settlement because he felt stifled by
his brothers and wanted out to really discover himself. If he is on this
quest he is doing a nice job of it because he has got two new solid
identities without his brothers breathing down his neck.
Psquare
has just won the best group of the decade at the just concluded MTV
Africa Music Award and has so much going for them. It would be a shame
and a big loss to African music to see this group sacrificed on a
platter of anything.
