Jude Okoye, the older brother of the defunct singing duo P-Square, has revealed how the group shared proceeds amid the controversy trailing the estranged twins.

Clarifying on an Instagram Live session, Jude disclosed that P-Square’s proceeds were shared between him, Peter, and Paul.

According to Jude, while he took 40 per cent of the proceeds, the twins shared 30 per cent each.

Jude’s revelation comes following accusations from his brother Peter that he diverted P-Square’s royalties worth millions of dollars into a private account.

“I went to the EFCC office with just Paul. I didn’t go with my lawyer. I gave them all the documents, an officer looked at it and asked if Peter signed. I pointed at his signature for him. I showed him the CAC certificates used in opening both Square Records and Northside Entertainment.

“They were like, you’re even more than P-Square. I said I don’t understand what you mean. They said, look, you’re entitled to 40 per cent shares while the duo are entitled to 30 per cent each. I said, well, I’m not supposed to say it with my mouth, you can see for yourself,” he said.

Jude also shared that he showed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to the EFCC as proof that they all agreed on the sharing formula.

“They [EFCC officers] started asking me some irritable questions like where I got the money to build my house in Ikoyi,” Jude stated, adding that the building was partly financed by selling his house in the United States and borrowing money from colleagues.

“I have not been with P-Square for the past eight years, since 2016,” he added.
