Jude’s younger brother and P-Square member, Paul Okoye (also known as Rudeboy), shared the news of the release on Wednesday. He posted several videos on Instagram showing friends and family welcoming Jude home.

“Jude is finally out after 2 months +,” Paul wrote. “All their efforts to frustrate his bail have collapsed. Welcome home brother #judeengees. And happy birthday. Welcome back blood.”

Peter Okoye Testifies Against Jude in Court

The controversy goes deeper, as it now involves Jude’s own family. Last week, Peter Okoye (known as Mr P) took the stand at the Federal High Court in Lagos. He accused Jude of secretly creating a new company under his wife’s name and using it to divert royalties that belonged to P-Square.

This shocking testimony has intensified the already strained relationship between the Okoye brothers.

Court Case Continues with New Date Set for June

Although Jude is now free, the legal case is far from over. The court has adjourned the case to June 4 for cross-examination. With Peter testifying against Jude, the next hearing is expected to be even more dramatic.

Fans of P-Square, once Nigeria’s biggest music duo, continue to express concern as the family’s private conflict unfolds in public.

Family Feud Turns Legal Battle

For years, speculation swirled around the reasons behind P-Square’s breakup. Now, with this legal dispute and public accusations, the tensions between the brothers are clearer than ever. While Jude celebrates his temporary freedom, he must still defend himself in court—this time, with his family on the opposing side.
