The Okoyes, of Peter, Paul and Jude, of the Square Records dynasty is at it again. This split is at it’s third season. What was once dazzling a story is now a rattling snag. First edition seemed like a publicity stunt, the sequel was blamed on their married status, as many felt their wives were the remote cause of the twins divorce. Now we are at the third episode of this saga and contrary to the general public that their pain is a delight to entertainment editors, this journalist is sick of it. They may as well go their separate ways. Ediale Kingsley writes 15 whys to this.

1. As individuals, we have our own family fights and brouhaha.

Let’s not pretend that the video of them fighting before Keyamo and former first lady of Cross River state — Mrs. Imoye — is a farce only imagined in movies. We fight everyday. Domestic violence is on the rise be it marital or between siblings.

2. Psquare’s existence since inception has only truly brought benefits to their family and close associates.

Currently they are worth $140m according to Net Worth Portal. Now converting that huge money in dollars to naira you will have N50,213,711,556.47. How much of this money comes to you or me? So why are we more emotional than the bereaved?

I say this because each time they announce their divorce, I see many people emotionally traumatized.

3. I once predicted the Twins Bread named after them by their parents would outlive their music career.

4. I took the pain to do this story. Then, they broke up and made up again.

5. Calculating the rising rate of upcoming acts these days is quite mind boggling and following the good ones from that crop isn’t even an easy task.

To then commit to them and still hold on to Psquare of ‘time immemorial’ is even more dutiful. There’s one guy , up comer, he’s a local artiste that is very hardworking. So hardworking that he got Governor Ayodele Fayose to feature in his videos. I bet you don’t know him. Just Google Surebanty.

6. The last time they fought and resettled it affected some upcoming acts signed under their respective baby record labels.

While their family did fasting and praying http://old.nationaldailyng.com/trends/trendtainment/10910-a-no-hold-bared-interview-with-lillian-okoye-p-square-s-sister

7. It was cool seeing the grass-to-grace and boys-to-men version of PSquare.

I really don’t want to see the Grannies version of PSquare. These guys don’t look like people who will stop wearing hip hop swagger. I don’t want to see a Peter and Paul Oldies doing hip hop.

8. When they don’t win awards they fight.

The last time the Headies had to give them recognition award. Isn’t that an End Credit trophy. I think that should be a wrap.

9. I want them split. Let’s get to know who really is the Tuface and the Blackface of the group.

We already know who is the Faze, Jude. So can they start their solo career already so we can settle this once and for all.

10. The Naira won’t rise if they became PSquare again.

So it doesn’t mean we can finally sack or praise CBN Governor.

11. The Niger Delta slums won’t vanish once they unite.

Yeah, it won’t end the struggle. And in the creeks they don’t listen to PSquare. They prefer Tuface and Timaya then occasionally Eedris Abdulkareem. Or Fela.

12. It won’t advance the Biafra course.

Neither will it erase it. Otherwise we could have added this to the list of things APC and PMB promised but failed to change.

13. Their coming together won’t pay any of our bills.

It won’t o. Unless your are Jude Okoye. And they don’t even have baby mamas. I hope this piece won’t encourage one to emerge.

14. Their coming together won’t stop me from listening to good music.

Currently I am still busy enjoying Simi’s new album—Simisola.

15. Let’s face it, 2 brothers can’t play for 20 years.

Plantashun Boiz and Remedies didn’t play that long. Oh, they are not blood brothers? Well the Jackson Five, couldn’t do that too.

Since both lads were inspired by the music icon, Micheal Jackson. Perhaps, it’s time to know who is the real Macko of the group. Paul is already a baller. And since Peter claims to be musical Shakespear, we can only anticipate bubbling careers ahead.
