Peter Okoye and Ruggedman took to twitter to drag the National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress(APC) youth renaissance group, following reports that the secretary called on the federal government to arrest Peter Okoye.
Recall that Peter Okoye and his brother Jude Okoye slammed the federal government days ago after information minister Lai Mohammed revealed plans by the government to ban film and music makers from producing their works abroad.
According to the minister, the production and importation of such works “hamper” the growth of the economy. But the Okoye brothers disagreed with that position and also called out politicians who troop abroad for their medical treatment and their children’s schooling.
Peter Okoye tweeted:
Jude Okoye also wrote on Instagram:
“Smh. An industry they NEVER encouraged, supported or empowered is what they now want to control. Let all of you stop running to abroad when you are sick as na naija money una dey use patronize oyibo hospital dem. You people are the ones refusing to fix our health facilities so u travel out when mosquito bite una. So why tell us where to record when u can’t provide uninterrupted power here in Nigeria. Sometime I wonder how we got it all wrong. Una children when dey sch for abroad na which money una dey use patronize them? Abeg stfu!”
Following Okoyes’ reactions, many other stars rose up, too, slamming the government for the ill move.
Well, the reactions didn’t sit well with the members of the APC Youths because the National Secretary Collins Edwin who unleashed a tirade against P-Square and called for Peter’s arrest.
Here’s a bit of what he said, according to Daily Post:
“Least of all persons to make scathing remark against the government is the Psquare group which the local content policy of the Federal Government dusted-up from the valley of obscurity.
“Where was Peter Okoye or Psquare brand in 1999 when foreign music dominated our airwaves? If not for the government policy which mandated all broadcast stations in Nigeria to pay attention to Nigerian music by playing 95 percent of Nigerian songs every day, would Peter Okoye or Psquare be known to anybody in Nigeria today?
“Or would they have competed with better American music which dominated our airwaves then?
“We, therefore, urge the security agencies in the country to arrest Mr Peter Okoye for disrespecting our government and bringing it to a disrepute.”
Well, Ruggedman has fired back at Collins, while Peter Okoye joined in the banter, mocking the National Secretary of APC Youths.
