Paul Okoye, a Nigerian singer better known as RudeBoy, has
come under criticism for performing ‘No One Like You’, at a presidential
wedding he graced in Equatorial Guinea.

The 39-year-old singer had taken to his Twitter page on
Sunday to share a video of himself performing the song, which was recorded by
PSquare, the now-defunct music group he shared with Peter Okoye, his twin
brother, at the wedding ceremony.

Shortly after he shared the video, fans took to the comment
section to demand the reason for performing a song that belonged to a group he
was no longer a part of.

While a segment of users registered their annoyance, saying
he wasn’t supposed to perform the song alone, others supported him up with the
assertion that they both have equal rights to the song they created together.

“Why are you performing Psquares song alone? This is
betrayal though if you don’t know,” a Twitter user wrote.

“They both have equal right to songs of defunct psquare.
Can’t you guys just get sense and move on already,” said another user.

The development comes a few days after Peter, better known
as Mr P, had slammed critics who constantly ask him to reconcile with Paul and
“bring back” Psquare.

Here are some of their reactions below:

Why are you performing Psquares song alone? This is betrayal Though if you don’t know.

Rudeboy of Psquare performed he and Mr P’s song at the presidential wedding in Equatorial Guinea.

Petition to ban either of them from performing songs they did together since they are now separated ?

I’m just angry they separated in the first place. Stop singing your old songs to remind me of psquare that is dead?

This is one of the reasons they separated, Paul(RudeBoy) and his other brother have always been rude and disrespectful to Peter. This alone is the summary.

You are totally wrong performing this song, what if peter decided to take it to another level people will now start saying is insensitive doing that?, why you no perform Audio Money,Reason with me and the rest.
MR P is trying to push his own music to the masses. This life sha?

This is very wrong @rudeboypsquare . You two recorded and sang the song together and if after break up , Music contract I know would say that no 1 amongst u should perform the song alone . Irrespective of what is happening, I believe agreement should be respected
