In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, April 20, Mr P stated that November 18, the date he shares with his twin, will no longer be observed as his birthday celebration day.
“Dear Family, Friends, and Fans, I’m making it official. November 18th is no longer my birthday celebration date. Please note that I will not be accepting any messages or gifts on that day. My birthday will now be celebrated on November 30th. This is a personal decision, and I truly appreciate your understanding. Thank you all,” he wrote.

Born on November 18, 1981, the Nigerian twins rose to fame as the iconic duo P-Square, one of Africa’s most successful music groups.
However, their relationship has been marked by repeated public disagreements over management, finances, and creative direction.
The pair first split in 2017 before briefly reuniting in 2021, a short-lived reconciliation as they eventually returned to solo careers.
The latest development comes amid renewed friction between the brothers, including recent allegations by Rudeboy that Mr P was involved in his invitation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), a claim that has further intensified public attention on their ongoing feud.

"How does one change the date of birth he was given? This is why communication matters. He could have said, My date of birth is 18th November, but going forward, I will be celebrating my birthdays on 30th November due to personal reasons.”
