Nigerian music stars and twin brother, Peter and Paul Okoye, better known as the Psquare pop group, have opened up about the lessons learned since their reunion and how it has changed some aspects in their life.
In a recent interview with CNN’s African Voices Change Makers, the twin brothers revealed that they now prioritize investing in their individual businesses instead of spending extravagantly on luxury items as they used to.
The Psquare pop group split in 2017 after a disagreement over the role of their older brother, Jude Okoye, as their manager.
However, they reconciled in 2021 and held their first headline concert later that year. Speaking about their reunion, Peter ‘Mr P’ Okoye said;
“What happened is this, if you know anything that happens in a group, it’s the same thing. It doesn’t change the fact that we are humans. We always going to look for that wind of change. Sometimes when things happen, always take the positive part of it and drop the negative parts. Why I said so is that I become more industrious.”
Peter also revealed that he has learned a lot from his solo career and has invested in several companies. He added:
“In the next year or two, I wanna own the biggest casino in Africa. All of us are into real estate.”
Paul, on the other hand, stated that family issues, not music, were the cause of their 2017 breakup. Paul ‘Rudeboy’ Okoye added;
“Now that we are back together, as more money is coming in I know where I am putting it. But then it was just wristwatches, chains. But now it is different.”
Fans of the singers have welcomed the brothers’ reunion and their new focus on investing in their businesses.
