Peter Okoye now known as Mr P has revealed that disrespect directed towards himself and his family that made him quit P-Square.

The singer revealed in a chat with Citizen TV in Kenya, were he said: “In life what we call family value is important.

The fans want P-square but how many times do you want P-square to come back and break up. We’ve broken up three times and the same issue is still there. So if P-square is going to come back we need to settle that issue. P-square might come back, they might not come back. I pulled out the plug because I felt the disrespect coming from my family (was) getting too much,” he said.

“There’s something we call marginalisation. Don’t ever be a slave because you want to be family. P-square can only come back if the respect comes 100 percent. I don’t disrespect my brother’s wife neither, his family but he does that to me all the time. He’ll insult me and my family in public, on Instagram, and the next minute he’ll wait for me backstage for us to perform together.

“I can’t do that. One thing is for sure, I took a vow to protect my wife and kids the day I got married and I stick to that.”

Recall that in an interview with Vanguard, Paul Okoye had kept mum on what led to the crash of the pop-group.

According to him:” I don’t even want to talk about the past. There are certain things you would ask me that will benefit you as a journalist, but won’t benefit me. So, the best thing I will do is to skip it because I don’t like discussing family issues. Except you want to know more about my personal family. As for my fans who want to hear my own side of the breakup story, I have my own way of communicating with them”.
