"Respect Our Decision And Move On" – Peter Okoye Slams Critics Urging Him To Retire From Music

Popular Nigerian singer Peter Okoye, professionally known as Mr P, has hit back at a critic urging him to quit music.

The critic shared a clip of Mr P’s music video, urging him to quit Afrobeats due to his age.

Responding to her, OAP Do2dtun slammed her, pointing out the selective criticism. He noted how Mr P is just 44, yet international acts such as Beyonce, Chris Brown, Usher are older than him.

“Peter is 44 but you dimwits are so ageist that you don’t even know what you bring down in the name of clicks."

Quoting Do2dtun, Mr P hailed himself, bragging that only few artistes are still performing at his level despite his age.

He slammed his critics, tagging them as PSquare fans, admonishing them to accept that change is constant, respect the decision of the twins and move on.

He wrote:
"Now he is too old to be singing and dancing.” Meanwhile, na the same people go celebrate and hype Usher, Beyoncé, and Chris Brown for doing exactly the same thing

“Make una help me name any artiste wey dey sing, dance, perform at the highest level, still plays multiple musical instruments, and still get music certificate. Ony Peter Okoye.

“Na why I always say: put some respect on the name Peter Okoye aka Mr P.

“One thing for sure, most of these people na PSQUARE heartbroken fans, and honestly, I understand their feelings. Them go dey alright las las. Nothing lasts forever. Change is constant. Respect our decision and move on."

“As for this solo journey? It’s one of the best thing that has ever happened in my life , and I honestly don’t care what anyone thinks.
