Nigerian music stars Seun Kuti and Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P of the former P-Square duo, have finally reconciled after a heated public disagreement that erupted during the 2023 general elections. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

The feud stemmed from their contrasting views on the presidential ambition of Peter Obi, who was the Labour Party’s candidate in the election.

The disagreement escalated when Seun Kuti publicly described Obi as an “opportunist,” a remark that sparked outrage among Obi’s supporters and prompted a sharp response from Peter Okoye. Okoye, in reaction, questioned Kuti’s relevance and accomplishments within the Nigerian music industry, leading to a tense exchange that played out across social media platforms.

The long-standing rift appears to have been resolved following a recent encounter between the two artistes at a Lagos nightclub.

A video currently circulating online shows Seun Kuti and Peter Okoye exchanging warm greetings and embracing, signaling an end to their dispute.

In the footage, Seun Kuti was heard telling Okoye:

“We are artistes, we can’t be fighting over politicians.”

Peter Okoye agreed with the statement, and both men appeared relaxed as they laughed and interacted, drawing cheers from onlookers at the venue.

The reconciliation has generated widespread reactions online, with many fans praising the musicians for choosing peace over political division. Observers say the moment underscores the need for tolerance and mutual respect despite differing political opinions, especially within Nigeria’s entertainment industry.

With this development, both Seun Kuti and Peter Okoye appear to have put the episode behind them, closing the chapter on one of the most talked-about celebrity political clashes of the 2023 election season.

Wow...


so this obedients character of attacking, threatening, bashing and insulting any person with a contrary opinion about obi didn't start recently.


Even people with the caliber of Peter even engage in such gutter behavior just because they support the man.

They will leave the message and not respect people's opinions and start attacking the messenger s personality and credibility.


Wow... just WOW!

stuffs2002:
Peter Okoye was very foolish for attacking Seun Kuti just because Seun Kuti refused to support Peter Obi


Seun Kuti and his family have never ever supported any politician but Peter Okoye kept on attacking Seun Kuti just because Seun was maintaining a neutral political point.

Many obidients have made unnecessary enemies for themselves because of 2023 politics. What they don't know is that only a fool will fight his fellow brother because of Nigerian politicians. See now after 2023 election, Obi and Atiku have come back together, Atiku and El Rufai's children are in APC with Tinubu, Jonathan is having a rapport with Tinubu, even Obi and Tinubu don't see each other as enemies; they are political rivals and both can still work together tomorrow if there's mutual interest. So why fighting and keeping malice over these people? That's foolishness.

At least ya'all have seen that your lagos builder has failed this country. It's left for you to allow a failure to waste your lives for another 4 years.

Time is life, wasted time can never be recovered so is life.
