P-Square star Paul Okoye, popularly known as Rudeboy, has publicly reaffirmed his deep connection to his Nigerian and Igbo roots in a strongly worded post that many fans view as a direct response to his twin brother Peter Okoye’s recent comments on language and culture.
The singer took to his official X account and posted a short video clip filled with cultural imagery alongside a powerful declaration.
“I’m a ‘nobody’ I repeat!! a nobody!! without the culture, native, language, the pride, of a Nigerian 100% proudly Nigerian 100% proudly Igbo,” Paul wrote.
The post quickly gained traction online. Many netizens interpreted it as Paul drawing a clear line between himself and his twin brother, Peter Okoye (Mr P), who days earlier had defended his children’s decision to learn and speak French.
Peter had pushed back against critics who accused him of sidelining Igbo language and culture. He questioned the practical value of speaking Nigerian languages in a world where English is the official tongue and global languages open more doors. His comments sparked heated debate among those who felt cultural identity was being undervalued.

Paul’s declaration arrived shortly after that controversy and reignited conversations about the long-standing public tensions between the once-inseparable twins.
Reactions poured in across social media. One user wrote:
“Bro is trying to say he doesn’t share the same ideology as his brother.”
Another went further in praise:
“You’re the Real PSquare, unlike your brother whose numerous and unending calamities began when he married from a tribe of people who swore to become and remain the enemies of Igbo Nation. I hail your distinction in Cultural Pride.”
The exchange has once again placed the Okoye twins at the centre of public discussion, this time over questions of heritage, global opportunity, and personal values. While Peter emphasised practical skills for his children, Paul chose to spotlight the irreplaceable role of culture, language, and ethnic pride in shaping identity.
For many observers, Paul’s message served as both a personal affirmation and a subtle reminder of the differences that continue to define the relationship between the two brothers.
