Nigerian Singer, Peter Okoye Shuts Down Possibility Of P-Square Ever Reuniting

One half of the now-defunct music duo P-Square, Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P, has firmly dismissed any possibility of the group reuniting.

P-Square, which consisted of twin brothers Peter and Paul Okoye, rose to fame as one of Africa’s most successful music acts, celebrated for their electrifying stage performances, synchronized dance routines, and a string of hit songs that dominated the airwaves for years.

The duo first split in 2017 following internal disagreements that played out publicly, much to the disappointment of fans. After a prolonged period of tension and widely reported family disputes, the brothers reconciled in 2021, sparking excitement and hope for a lasting reunion.

However, the renewed partnership proved short-lived, as they reportedly fell out again in 2024 and have since returned to pursuing separate careers as solo artistes.

Reaffirming his stance, Peter recently responded to a fan on X (formerly Twitter) who asked about the possibility of P-Square coming back together.

In a brief but decisive reply, he wrote: “Not with me. Done and dusted.”

His statement has since generated widespread reactions online, with fans expressing mixed feelings—ranging from disappointment to acceptance—as it appears the door on a P-Square reunion may now be firmly closed.

I Don’t Feel Like I’m Married – Nollywood Actress, Foluke Daramola Says (Video)

Foluke Daramola, the popular Nollywood actress, has stated that she doesn’t feel like someone who is married.

The actress made the remarks during her recent interview on the African A-List podcast.

Discussing her marriage to Kayode Salako, she described her husband as the “definition of peace.”

Speaking about the freedom she enjoys in her marriage, Daramola said, “I don’t feel like I’m married. My husband is the definition of peace for me.

“If I tell Kayode now that I will be going to Canada tonight and will spend up to a year there, he will say bye-bye. It doesn’t mean he doesn’t love me; he just feels like he shouldn’t cage me.

“So I don’t feel like I’m married. He is my very good friend and my greatest cheerleader. When we fight, you would think that the marriage is going to end, but give us two hours, and everything will be settled,” she added.

This comes two years after Kayode Salako confirmed his marriage to another woman, identified as Oluwafunke Oyegoke-Salako, while still married to the actress.

Defending his decision to marry another woman, he stated that he had been married to Foluke for 13 years without a biological child.

I Never Thought I’d Be Single At 37 – Jason Derulo Opens Up

American singer Jason Derulo, born Jason Joel Desrouleaux, has shared a personal reflection about his love life, revealing that he once expected to settle down much earlier.

The artist admitted that he never imagined he would still be single at the age of 37, noting that his younger self had envisioned marriage happening much sooner in life.

In an interview with Graham Bensinger, the ‘Don’t Wanna Go Home’ hitmaker candidly revealed that his experience changed his perspective on marriages.

The singer said he has witnessed a lot of breakups and tensed moments of couples, which made him scared of commitment.

“I thought I was going to marry a lot of the girls I dated. Never in a million years I thought that I would be 37 and single.

“However, I have seen too much. I have seen too much in my life. You could imagine the things that I have seen; married women leaving their spouses on the spot, leaving their men in the club.

“I have seen everything under the sun,” he expressed.

Derulo and fellow singer Jordin Sparks dated for three years, before ending their relationship in September 2014.

In 2021, he welcomed a son with his girlfriend Jena Frumes. The couple broke up barely five months after the arrival of their child.

I Was Tired, I Wanted More For Myself – Nigerian Singer, Liya Reveals Why She Left Davido’s Record Label (Video)

Abdulsalam Suliyat Modasola, the Nigerian singer and songwriter, who is popularly known as Liya, has revealed why she left Davido Music Worldwide (DMW).

Liya, who was the first female artist to sign with DMW in October 2020, said she exited the record label because she wanted more for herself.

The singer had announced her exit from the label in 2023 during an Instagram question-and-answer session.

Replying to a fan who asked if she was still with DMW, she wrote, “Nopee, but #30bg for lifee.

Speaking on a recent episode of Wahala with Josy Anne, the singer said leaving the label was not an easy decision.

“Why did I leave? I just wanted more for myself, as a person and as an artist. I wanted more for myself. It was sad, it was depressing, I was tired, I was sick, but it was a decision that I had to make for myself. Yeah, because everyone thought I had it all figured out,” she said.

Liya also said people judged her wrongly during that period and accused her of doing nothing.

“They called me names. People saying, Oh, she’s just lazy. She doesn’t know what she’s doing. They’re just pouring money on her, and she’s not doing anything for over a year or two years. They’d just be like, oh, yeah, you just don’t know what you’re doing. It was my fault,”she said.

She added that things got so bad that she stopped handling her Instagram posts by herself for about two or three years.

“And all that period, I just did not know how to post by myself. For the past two or three years. I never posted myself on Instagram. Yeah. I always have my manager post for me. I mean, we’ll put the pictures and stuff together, slides and everything. But then I just send everything to him. Oh, this is the first slide, second slide,” she said.

Liya, however, praised her manager for staying patient with her through it all.

“He was tired, but I’m so glad he understood. He was very patient with me. He never pushed me or forced me to post myself,” she added.

Tonto Dikeh Wants To K!ll Me – Actress Doris Ogala Cries Out, Raises Alarm Over Alleged Spiritual Plot

Doris Ogala, the popular Nollywood actress, has accused her colleague Tonto Dikeh of attempting to harm her through spiritual means.

The issue came to light on Wednesday, after Doris took to social media to share a series of emotional messages about her experience.

 

 

She claimed that her only intention was to ask Tonto to help speak to a man identified as Chris about refunding money owed to her, and not to get involved in any personal relationship matters.

Doris said she was shocked by what followed, as she alleged that Tonto instead took steps that could put her in danger.

She claimed that Tonto reported her to a traditional herbalist, an action she believes was meant to harm her spiritually.

As part of her claims, Doris released an audio clip which she said was Tonto’s voice.

In the recording, she alleged that Tonto spoke about contacting a woman she described as a spiritualist in relation to her.

The actress expressed pain over the situation, recalling how she stood by Tonto during her past issues with her former partner, Prince Kpokpogri.

She said she supported her when many others stayed away, making the current situation even more difficult for her to understand.

Doris also warned people to be careful and pay attention to what is happening, stating that the matter should not be taken lightly. She maintained that the situation has left her feeling betrayed.

She said: “Tonto is reporting to k!ll me… why… why are you reporting me to your mamalawo. Guys, you will be shocked at how evil this girl’s heart is.

“Should I keep quiet after seeing this… Ahhh everyone should check oo. This is a bastard I help during her disgraceful ordeal with Kpokpogiri. Make una dey hear oo. Every other person left this girl. I stood by her kai. Why.”

Why Davido Should Have Distributed N200m Birthday Donation To Music Legends – Singer Konga Speaks (Video)

Veteran singer Konga has expressed his disappointment over what he describes as the lack of support from the current generation of Nigerian artists toward industry legends.

Speaking in a recent episode of the Hits Don’t Lie podcast, the Kabakaba crooner said Davido should have supported Nigerian music legends with the N200 million birthday donations he received from his friends and fans in 2021.

 

Recall that Davido added N50 million of his own money, bringing the total to N250 million, which he donated to 292 orphanages across Nigeria.

 

 

 

However, Konga argued that it would have been better if he had used the funds to support struggling music legends, stressing that the funds could have rejuvenated their careers.

He said, “The present crops of Nigerian artists need to humble themselves. Nobody is dragging their money with them. But they have used peer pressure to chase a lot of Nigerian music legends into doing menial jobs abroad.

“If I were part of Davido’s management, one time his friends contributed money to him, I would have said – ‘Davido, carry this money, go and give it to all these legends… bring Baba Fryo back, bring Daddy Showkey. Give Daddy Showkey, Baba Fryo and others N5 million each.’

“If he had done that, the industry would have waken up. Our legends would have dropped a lot of comeback hits. Our music legends are running away due to lack of support. Look at Lord of Ajasa, is that a joke to you? And someone like Olamide will come out to say Wizkid is the greatest Nigerian artist internationally. Where is that coming from? We have been doing international shows for ages.

“You guys are only taking it forward from where we stopped. Fela, King Sunny Ade, Majek Fashek and others have been touring the world for years. Just because our achievements were not documented back then does not mean we did not do anything.”
