Nigerian singer Peter Okoye, widely known as Mr P and one-half of the P-Square duo, has stirred excitement on the internet with the release of two new tracks, “Winning” and “Attention,” after a long period of silence.
The Afrobeats star surprised fans by sharing snippets of the songs in the early hours of Friday, November 8, revealing that they were now available on all major streaming platforms.

Mr P also announced that the music video for “Winning” would drop later that day at 2 pm on YouTube.
However, the excitement was soon overshadowed by controversy when Mr P’s twin brother, Paul Okoye (aka Rudeboy), accused him of intellectual theft over the song “Winning.”
Rudeboy claimed that he was the original writer and vocalist of the track, expressing shock that the same producer was behind the version Mr P recently released.
