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 said 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‘, a source said.
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 revealed 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. It was 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‘.
This
allegations have not been confirmed, 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.
