D’Banj Calls for Intervention in P-Square’s Rift, Urges Reconciliation
Afrobeats icon D’Banj has weighed in on the ongoing tension between legendary music duo P-Square, calling for unity and urging stakeholders in the Nigerian music industry to step in and help resolve the long-standing rift.
Speaking during a recent interview, D’Banj expressed sadness over the unresolved differences between the Okoye brothers, Peter and Paul, whose impact on African music remains unparalleled. The singer emphasized that while creative disagreements are not uncommon, the current situation between the duo—once celebrated for their electrifying performances and timeless hits requires a mature and collective intervention.
“I believe that P-Square is not just a group, they are brothers, they are legends. And if we truly value what they represent, we should not stand by and watch this rift continue,” D’Banj said. “Sometimes, all it takes is the right conversation at the right time.”
The P-Square rift has been a topic of discussion for years, with fans divided and longing for a full reconciliation that could bring the duo back on stage as one. Despite a brief reunion and subsequent solo ventures, tensions appear to still linger behind the scenes.
D’Banj’s call for reconciliation comes at a time when unity among African artists is more important than ever, especially with the global rise of Afrobeats. His words have sparked conversations on social media, with many fans echoing his sentiments and calling on industry veterans to help mediate a peaceful resolution.
As the music world watches closely, D’Banj’s appeal serves as a reminder that behind the fame and performances are real relationships that deserve healing. Whether or not P-Square chooses to reunite fully, the message from the Koko Master is clear: African music thrives best in unity.
