Celebrities › P-square: EFCC Disowns Peter Okoye’s $800,000 Claim Against Jude by Kingzjayzee(op): 9:12am On Dec 01, 2025 |
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Friday told a Lagos State Special Offences Court in Ikeja that it had no evidence to support Peter Okoye’s allegation that his brother, Jude Okoye, and Paul Okoye, of the defunct music group, P-Square, fraudulently withdrew $800,000. Peter had petitioned the EFCC in 2024, claiming that Jude diverted funds belonging to P-Square, operated 47 undeclared bank accounts, and manipulated the shareholding structure of Northside Entertainment Ltd., a company jointly owned by the brothers. The petition led to charges being filed against Jude over alleged financial mismanagement of the P-Square brand. At the resumed cross-examination on Friday, the EFCC counsel, Mohammed Bashir, told Justice Rahman Oshodi that the commission could not tender evidence supporting the alleged $800,000 withdrawal. He said, “ We do not have it. It is his evidence. Let him prove it. I can’t give what I don’t have.” Jude and his Northside Music Limited company were arraigned on March 4, 2025, on four counts relating to the alleged stealing and conversion of $1 million and £34,000 in royalties from music digital distribution and publishing. At the arraignment, the EFCC claimed Jude and Northside Music Limited allegedly converted $767,544.15 of payments made by Lex Records Limited for digital music distribution, intending to permanently deprive Peter of his interest. Jude was granted bail of N50m on March 6, 2025. During the trial, on May 23, 2025, Peter testified that new evidence showed Jude and Paul withdrew and shared over $800,000 between March 2023 and October 2024. Under cross-examination by defence counsel Clement Onwuenwunor (SAN), he revised the timeline to 2013–2014. Peter also claimed Jude operated 47 bank accounts and held an 80% stake in Northside Entertainment. The EFCC denied possessing records of the accounts. Bashir said, “ I do not have 47 bank accounts. It is one of the witness’s claims, but I do not have such a copy.” The defence tendered Corporate Affairs Commission records contradicting Peter’s claim of an 80% stake. Peter further admitted he only became aware of Northside Music in 2024 when artist Cynthia Morgan sent him her contract on the company’s letterhead, though her albums were credited to Northside Inc. Justice Oshodi adjourned proceedings to December 12, 2025, for continuation of the trial. https://punchng.com/p-square-efcc-disowns-peter-okoyes-800000-claim-against-jude/

SpencerForbes: The people you are talking about are those really struggling—the ones pulling in just ₦30k or ₦40k—and doing it all alone.
The critical difference is that they don't have a hardworking partner, side income, strategic planning or any spousal support. That lack of teamwork is what really kills them. That’s why we keep selecting ₦100k from both parties as the leverage point for discussion. I once read a book, The Millionaire Mindset, which distinguished between people who are actually rich and those who just want to impress others with the perception of wealth. The author noted that those who lived moderately always had spare cash to give than those who went the extra mile to maintain a lavish appearance. Below average income is a struggle, but hitting above minimum wage by both parties definitely gives you the leverage to start planning.
I know a perfect example: A man with multiple shops in Ladipo International Market was intentionally living in a room self-contain. He had the money but firmly decided not to buy cars until both his children had finished university. Now, that man owns more than three cars, and both his daughters are doing exceptionally well.
If being raised in luxury was guaranteed to produce successful children, we wouldn’t have examples like Elon Musk’s child or even children of high-profile political candidates struggling with issues linked to bad influence and a lack of proper home training.
There is no two ways about this:
Luxury without proper training will always create a problematic child, but an average life backed by solid values will always create a good child. the title of the book is actually " The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America’s Wealthy Authors by Thomas J. Stanley and William D. Danko" |

Zanzibar1: Just know you are in for a very rough start if you are the only one earning and your wife isn't earning other than having a petty shop. Things works in marvelous ways tho but not always .

NewLife14: I came across this beautiful post about the above topic here https://www.nairaland.com/8571178/someone-earning-100k-naira-should In the comments, many great minded Nairalanders argued for and against "Marrying with a 100K income" from many perspectives.
This post is all about putting the theories in figures. STAY TUNED .
Now the man (From a supportive family) earns 100K and decides to Marry. That is #1,200,000 per annum (1.2M). His expected expenditure should look like this: ➡️Cost of wedding =Free (Family Sponsors). ➡️ House rent =Free (Has 2 rooms in his family house). ➡️ Electricity Bill (2K a month X 1 year) = #24,000. ➡️Feeding with wife and kid/s (At least 2K a day X 1 year)= #730,000. ➡️Clothing =Nil (He doesn't change clothes ). ➡️Wife Expenditure = Nil (Her parents supports her and fends for her in his house ) ➡️Baby Diapers = Nil (Baby wears Napkin). ➡️ Water (Sachet water and others) =Free. ➡️Baby Food and Groceries (Milk, etc, 5K per month X 1 year) =#60,000. ➡️Transportation to work (500 Naira per day X at least 270 days a year) =#135,000. ➡️Recharge card and Data for our man and wife (#200 a day x 1 year) = #73,000.
TOTAL SO FAR =#1,022,000 (1M, 22K) Our man will be left with #178,000 (178K) at the end of the year in review.
⚠️You will observe that I was extremely prudent in the expenditure, in the hope that both his family and the wife's family support the marriage which is most times unlikely; what applies is that you the man is the one supporting them instead.
⚠️ I only added basic RECURRENT costs and didn't account for emergencies like Healthcare, or even miscellaneous. I also obviously avoided school fees, baby wears, etc.
❓Can you marry with 100K income? YES & NO!
You can if you already have a room in your parents house, your family and her family is supportive financially and otherwise, you like stress and you are comfortable with your current financial status (as marrying at this stage will give you little room for financial improvement and growth)
But if you desire to grow financially, break the chain of poverty, value your peace of mind, want to give your family the best and live in a city where you pay for rent and other things, then it'll be a suicide mission to marry with a 100K income.
My 2 cents  this one pass 2 cents oo  |

SpencerForbes: I’ve got some questions:
— What if both of them are earning #100,000 ?🤔
— If you’re able to save 30k monthly, what’s stopping any of them from starting a side hustle like POS or provision sales?
— Let’s imagine the lady is industrious and has a skill (hairdressing or make up skills) what’s stopping you from marrying her?
— If you’re above forty but you have a house and everything is put in place, why shouldn’t you get married?
— If the family is supportive and don’t need an elaborate wedding for now till you’re okay, should you still boycott marriage? u never hear say "her money na her money. Your own money na una money"? U never hear that one abi u were not informed too?  |

Why, because she was dating a simp and her friends were expecting their own boyfriends to reduce themselves to his (very) low standards.
I never found out what happened to the other relationships after my friend moved on.

Romance › My Wife Has Full Access To My Phone And Finances - South African Man by Kingzjayzee(op): 7:14am On Nov 21, 2025 |
A South African man, Dr. Bakhe Dlami, has revealed that his wife has full access to his phone and his bank account “belongs to her.”
The marriage counsellor and psychologist disclosed this in a Facebook post on Thursday, November 20,
The father of three said he owes his woman loyalty, commitment and treats her like he would want his two daughters to be treated.
“Husband of 1, father of 3, always home latest 6:00PM (unless work demands), my wife has FULL access to my phone. My bank account belongs to her, hers belongs to myself; we are one. I'm in this marriage thing a 1 000%,” he wrote.
"I don't do half commitments. And yes, I'm there for the fun. If there's no fun, intimacy, connection: I don't want it. I believe in being a "gentleman", chivalry, decorum. I'm not a simp, I'm a leader. Not a dictator, but a leader.
“I owe my woman loyalty, commitment. I have 2 girl children. I treat my wife like I'd want my daughters to be treated. I strive to be a better husband & father each day. I come from a painful background; have to do better. I can't fail myself. Foolishness is stumbling where your predecessors have.” https://www.lindaikejisblog.com/2025/11/my-wife-has-full-access-to-my-phone-my-bank-account-belongs-to-her-i-treat-her-like-id-want-my-daughters-to-be-treated-south-african-man-say.html
