According to him, they should desist from looking for who to blame for their predicament and start holding the government responsible.
Okoye noted further on how those in power send their children overseas for quality education and medical treatment and Nigerians expect celebrities to construct roads and build schools for them.
Speaking to those questioning him for not signing any artiste, he stated that not everyone must sign artistes. He made reference to the late Michael Jackson, who only signed his sister before his untimely death. Peter pointed out the hypocrisy of how Nigerians would have dragged him for engaging in only family business, if he had signed his sister.
Mr P, as he is fondly called added that he doesn’t want to sign artistes.
He said, “I invest more money in technology. You guys say Psquare who una help? Who una bring up? Who did Michael Jackson bring up? It is not every body artist must sign. Me I don’t want to sign again.
MJ brought his sister, if I bring my sister, you all would say it’s family business.
A lot of people need help, but please learn to hold your government responsible. Enough of looking for people to blame you guys are quick to blame celebrities.
You are waiting for celebrities to build hospitals, build schools. Meanwhile your government is taking his own kids, abroad for treatment, taking them to school abroad”.
