It was gathered that Mrs. Okoye lost the battle to a sickness which has not been disclosed. No word yet from Peter, Paul, Tony, Jude and the rest of the Okoye siblings. But close sources confirmed that at the initial stage of the illness, she was taken to St. Nicholas Hospital, one of the most expensive medical centres in Nigeria. She was later flown abroad for further treatment, where she passed on.
Since the news broke, the Psquare family has been receivingcondolence messages from friends and colleagues.
Mrs. Okoye was fond of attending her son’s events as often as she could, her last public appearance being the P-Square Invasion Concert in August 2011.
An unrepentant supporter of her kids, the late Mrs. Okoye, although a Christian minister, encouraged pop duo Peter and Paul with their music careers, giving her full backing long before it became profitable.
