Nigerian music stars, Seun Kuti and Peter Okoye, popularly known as Mr P of the defunct P-Square, have resolved their feud months after trading words over the 2023 general elections.
The disagreement, which played out publicly in 2023, stemmed from opposing views over the presidential ambition of Peter Obi, the Labour Party candidate in the general election.
The feud began after Kuti described Obi as an “opportunist,” a remark that drew a sharp response from Okoye, who questioned Kuti’s relevance and success as an artiste. The exchange escalated into a heated social media confrontation between the two musicians.
However, the pair appeared to have put their differences behind them after they were recently spotted embracing each other at a nightclub in Lagos.
In a video from the encounter which started trending on Saturday, Kuti was heard telling Okoye, “We are artistes, we can’t be fighting over politicians,” a sentiment Okoye agreed with as they shook hands.
