Mr P Opens Up on P-Square Split: "Sometimes Walking Away Is the Best Decision"
Nigerian music icon Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P, has once again addressed the breakup of legendary music duo P-Square, saying peace of mind has become more important than preserving a partnership that was no longer working.

Mr P has broken his silence in recent interviews, offering fresh insight into the collapse of P-Square and the emotional toll the family's long-running dispute has taken on him.
Speaking during a recent radio interview, the singer urged fans to accept that not every relationship can be repaired, explaining that there comes a time when choosing personal peace is more important than forcing a reunion.
"We're Not Okay"
Addressing widespread speculation about the possibility of another reunion, Mr P admitted that the relationship between the brothers remains strained.
He suggested that many fans only see the public side of the story and are unaware of the personal challenges that have affected the family over the years.
According to the singer, continuing to pretend everything was fine would only make the situation worse, adding that honesty is better than giving supporters false hope.
Choosing Peace Over Pressure
Mr P explained that stepping away from the group was not an easy decision but believes it was necessary for his personal well-being.
He encouraged fans to respect the decisions made by both brothers, noting that life sometimes requires difficult choices, even when those choices disappoint millions of supporters.
Focused on His Solo Career
Rather than dwelling on the past, Mr P says his attention is now firmly on his solo career.
The singer has been promoting new music and teasing upcoming projects, describing this stage of his career as an opportunity to build a lasting legacy under his own identity. He recently announced plans for his OG Forever Tour, which is expected to take him across several European cities later this year.
Fans React
Mr P's latest comments have sparked mixed reactions online.
While many fans expressed sadness that another P-Square reunion appears unlikely, others praised the singer for prioritising his mental well-being and choosing honesty over public expectations.
The renewed discussion has once again highlighted the lasting impact P-Square had on African music, with many supporters still hoping the brothers can reconcile someday.
The Bottom Line
Nearly a decade after P-Square's first breakup and years after their brief reunion, Mr P says he is focused on moving forward rather than looking back.
Although fans continue to dream of seeing the iconic duo perform together again, his recent comments suggest that, for now, his priority is personal peace, family, and building his own legacy as a solo artist.
