Jude Okoye, the former manager of the music group P-Square, has been released from prison after two months in detention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The elder brother of twins Paul and Peter was charged by the anti-corruption agency, alongside his company Northside Music Limited, on seven counts related to money laundering. His release was announced on Wednesday by Paul Okoye, popularly known as Rudeboy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sharing a series of videos on Instagram showing him and others welcoming Jude home, Paul wrote: \u201cJude is finally free after more than two months\u2026 all their efforts to prevent him from being granted bail have finally failed. Welcome home, my brother #judeengees. And happy birthday. Good to have you back, blood.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rudeboy has accused his twin brother, Peter Okoye\u2014commonly known as Mr. P of P-Square\u2014of being behind Jude\u2019s legal troubles and detention. Last week, Peter testified against Jude before the Federal High Court in Lagos. He detailed how Jude had allegedly registered a new company in his wife\u2019s name and used it to divert royalties that rightfully belonged to P-Square. The court has adjourned the case to June 4 for cross-examination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
