On Sunday, November 17, 2013, Lagos
stood still for Psquare‘s Peter Okoye and fiancée Lola Omotayo as the couple
held their traditional wedding ceremony,
surprisingly elder brother Jude Okoye was missing.
Social network has been buzzing. The
twins’ publicist Bayo Adetu tells NET Jude was missing at the wedding because
he was stuck in Ghana. Psquare had performed in Accra, Ghana at the ‘Glo and Bounce
Slide‘ tour the night before. Adetu says Jude missed his flight and couldn’t
get back to Lagos in time for the nuptials.
But a source who was part of another
artiste’s entourage to Ghana for the concert says Jude Okoye did NOT travel to
Ghana. ‘We didn’t see him, the twins were here with their band but we didn’t
see Jude‘, our source who’d rather stay anonymous tells NET.
There are few instances pointing to the fact that Jude did not travel
with his Pop star twin brothers to Ghana for the concert: Jude, a regular user
of photo sharing Instagram never fails to post photos of their trip outside
Nigeria – there were no photos of him aboard the airplane heading to GH, photos
of the twins performing at the concert.
One source asks: ‘If he was truly stuck
in Ghana, wouldn’t he have even lamented on Twitter like D’banj?‘.
Instead Jude posted a photo of himself
and Wizkid in the studio. The picture is believed to have been taken a night
before at the Mavin Records studio where he had been working with Don Jazzy, Dr
SID, Phyno and others.
Inside sources in the Okoye family tell
NET that Jude Okoye and a few other family members did not support their
brother’s marriage to his baby mama Lola Omotayo. Some sources also also claim
their late mother never supported the relationship too.
‘Jude and some others don’t like her.
They never gave their blessing for the marriage. Paul too, but he is his twin.
Other family members who were there were reluctant to attend. Jude didn’t go
because he never supported the idea from day one‘, a family source tells us.
Some of the Okoye family members have
even gone as far as insinuating that Lola Omotayo has allegedly constantly
cheated on Peter Okoye. NET gathered there have been demands for a DNA test to really ascertain whether his
children Cameron and Aliona are truly his. ‘It’s that serious, they claim Lola
sleeps around with her so called ‘uncles’, they want a DNA test done, they just want to protect their
brother‘.
WE could not independently confirm
these allegations, and Adetu insists there are no issues, that Jude was only
MIA because he was stuck in Ghana. One of the couple’s friends also told us all
these are ‘wicked rumours’. ‘Wicked, false rumours. Nothing can be more false
and distasteful. They should leave them alone and let them have peace…’
Lola currently lives in a mansion in
Park View estate, Ikoyi. The Okoyes are currently building their new home somewhere not to far from there. It is
uncertain where the couple will make their home.
Jude Okoye has been working with
Psquare, his younger brothers since they released their first album ‘Last Nite‘
under Timbuk2 Music label back in 2003.
