By Oluwarantimi Oludase

The controversy surrounding popular Nigerian singers, Peter Okoye, best known as Mr P, and his twin brother, Paul Okoye, best known as Rudeboy, has further been fuelled.

The Nigerian Voice recalls that Rudeboy alleged that his brother, Mr P, and their former producer 'Vampire' stole his song. He claimed that the song Mr P recently released 'Winning,' was written by him, and recorded with the producer who went ahead to give it to Mr P.

Responding to the allegation, Mr P stated that the song "Winning" was co-written and composed by himself and Calypso60. He explained that there was no way he could have stolen his brother's song.

He appealed to Rudeboy to cut him some slack, and allow him to enjoy his music.career in peace.

In a recent development, Mr P, who is celebrating 'Winning' music video hitting 1 million views in one day, shared evidence of him and the song’s composer teaching his brother, Rudeboy what to sing, while emphasizing that he has valid evidence for anyone who accuses him wrongly.

“Call us names, call us childish; it is fine. I understand, but if anyone says anything false about me and I have evidence, then I have a right to defend myself. Let’s stay WINNING.

With my full chest! @calypso60music and myself wrote WINNING”.
