Peter Okoye, now known as Mr P, says his brother Paul would insult his wife and kids and expect a Psquare performance moments later.
Months after the split of the duo Psquare, Peter — one half of the group — explains that it was the disrespect directed towards himself and his family that pushed him to quit.
Peter married Lola Omotayo-Okoye in 2015 and they have two children named Cameron and Aliona.
“In life what we call family value is important,” said the ‘Ebeano’ singer said on Citizen TV in Kenya.
“The fans want Psquare but how many times do you want Psquare to come back and break up.
“We’ve broken up three times and the same issue is still there. So if Psquare is going to come back we need to settle that issue. Psquare might come back, they might not come back.
Peter said he must put his wife and children first because of the vow he made on his wedding day.
“I pulled out the plug because I felt the disrespect coming from my family (was) getting too much,” he said.
“There’s something we call marginalisation. Don’t ever be a slave because you want to be family.
“Psquare can only come back if the respect comes 100 percent.
“I don’t disrespect my brother’s wife neither, his family but he does that to me all the time. He’ll insult me and my family in public, on Instagram, and the next minute he’ll wait for me backstage for us to perform together.
“I can’t do that. One thing is for sure, I took a vow to protect my wife and kids the day I got married and I stick to that.”
Both Peter and Paul have since embarked on their respective solo music careers.

Chai, you have spoken well stand to protect your family there are your legacy brother.
I hate this breakup from Psquare in every way. I have commented badly on this cos I’m a twin nd I hardly have issues with him. One thing is certain, how come you guy’s did not have issues nd possibly embarking on separation until ur married. Ur both wives are responsible nd they’ve failed woefully in the eyes of many. People all over the world will still blame them. I’m a twin nd I love my brother till date, come on psquare. U guys were together for nine months, no separation, u suck d same breast, no separation, u crawl nd walk together, no separation, U eat in d same plate, wear d same clothes, sleep on d same mart no separation. Peter nd Paul how come now. My heart is bleeding cos I’m a twin nd loves my brother. Pls Pls Pls u piple should settle for d last time. If u fail, I will lead a protest nd u will b responsible for whatever happens.
Brother, this one really touched you oh. A protest. I want them back so much, they made my childhood really awesome, I just hope they rectify their issues
How are you they haven’t been having it before they got married. Peter might not have had a problem before marriage because he might have not been fine. And please how are you sure their wives having been talking. When you don’t facts please don’t say what might not be true. Do you live with them
Please idont like that separation no matter how it may be. Try to settle no mind the insult no mind the embarrassment no mind the abuse even though you can’t leave together you can be parforming together please Ibeg you people by the name of God who you people sarve. Your family is your family you can never change it. Thanks God bless you peoples in Jesus name AMEN.

The worst thing that will happen to a man is when you claim to be a man and you don’t know your onions.
How can you insults my family not once, not twice but repeatedly and you claim we are brothers, brother my foot.
Respect is a reciprocal, intentionally you bent to insulting your twin brother and expects him to continue taken the s**t?
