The former P-Square star filmed the video indoors from what appears to be an upscale home foyer, interspersing his account with archival footage from 2015 that shows a tense exchange from roughly a decade ago which he said occurred in the aftermath of the dispute.
Peter Okoye details property dispute with siblings
Peter explains that around 2014, the three brothers agreed to divide their shared assets three ways, splitting properties that included a house in America and two wings of a duplex. Peter was allocated the US property, Jude took the furnished right wing of a duplex in Squareville, and Paul received the left wing.
Because Peter's share was considered higher in value due to a favourable exchange rate shift, they agreed to balance the books by paying Paul 30 million naira.
The situation unravelled when Peter Okoye returned from a trip abroad and received a message from a US-based realtor friend asking why the Atlanta property had been listed for sale without his knowledge. He confronted Jude backstage at a show, only to be met with a sudden slap in front of colleagues and clients. A scuffle nearly broke out before Peter told Jude on the spot that he was fired.
The drama escalated when Peter attended a lawyer's meeting expecting to formalise the 30 million naira payment to Paul. Instead, he was handed documents demanding he liquidate his shares in Nosa Entertainment and hand them over.
He refused to sign, and he claims Jude subsequently threatened to shoot him and his wife, a threat he recorded on his phone, which was the 2015 video he showed to fans labelled part 5.
He states he also reported an earlier threat to a governor, after which Jude posted an image of three guns on social media with a threatening caption.
Peter Okoye's allegations against his brothers
Peter Okoye says that once he secured the Atlanta property through an existing resolution document, Jude's wife was reportedly turned away when she tried to access the apartment. He also alleges that during the period of dispute, funding for his house, being built through Nosa Entertainment money, was quietly cut off. He points to the creation of Nosa Music as proof that Jude and Paul sought to sideline him entirely, noting that Jude's wife was made a shareholder in the new entity.
