Rudeboy claims that Peter, his twin brother, was behind the recent Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s (EFCC) arrest of him.
Rudeboy revealed in a recent interview with City FM in Lagos that Mr. P complained to the anti-corruption agency, which led to them calling him about alleged fraud.
After a thorough investigation, the EFCC cleared him of all charges, but he claimed that his twin brother still had not apologized for the unfounded accusations.
Paul emphasized the depth of the division between the brothers by describing the event as both painful and shocking.
“My twin brother’s petition against me led to the EFCC sending me an invitation this year. I never imagined our beef would get this bad. I mistook it for simple music,” he remarked.

“People are asking me, ‘What do you do?'” after the next incident. “You are going to spend twenty years in prison,” said someone. You will be imprisoned by them. When I arrived at the EFCC office, I was given all the information. All of my account statements have already been printed. I was asked to describe each transaction to them.
“First and foremost, I wondered: What if I was a fraud? Would my brother have finished me that way? Still, I accepted it. Subsequently, the inquiry was launched. I got to the point where I felt uncomfortable answering their questions. They wanted sureties and to get me a lawyer as soon as I realized it was serious. I completed every task.
“A month ago, they called my twin brother, Jude Okoye, and our older brother, and they said, ‘First of all, we have to say that Paul is innocent after all investigations.'” Paul is unharmed. We have looked into all you have accused him of, and he is innocent.
“My twin brother did not apologize for the false accusations, even though I was proven innocent.”
Paul also disclosed that, following Peter’s declaration that he was no longer interested in the group, the two had broken up.
