  "account": "Fans of the defunct music duo P-Square have taken sides in the ongoing family dispute involving Peter \"Mr P\" Okoye, his twin brother Paul \"Rudeboy\" Okoye, and their elder brother and former manager Jude Okoye. The renewed feud has been fueled by Peter's ongoing video series, where he revisits events surrounding the breakups of P-Square and the family's financial dispute. Peter has made allegations against Jude, including mishandling of royalty payments, which have generated widespread reactions online.\n\nSome fans have expressed sympathy for Peter, while others have called for Paul to present his side before reaching conclusions. One user stated that if there is any truth to Peter's allegations, they should be made available. Another user noted that Nigerians have a tendency to support someone once they hear their side of the story. Several fans have also defended Peter, calling for an end to the family feud and praising his increased social media presence.\n\nHowever, some users have criticized the double standards shown by Nigerians in supporting Peter, emphasizing that they would not extend the same support if the roles were reversed. The controversy has also drawn comments from other family members, with one expressing sympathy for Peter's wife, Lola Omotayo, who must have witnessed the turmoil first-hand.",
