Acquires N65m automobiles
Still basking in the euphoria of their success as the Best African Act, the duo of Paul and Peter Okoye [P Square], have indeed proved that the honour bestowed on them by KORA is not a fluke as their musical tour of the United States of America turned out to be a massive success.
The one and half month tour, which ended in New York City on 24 July, 2010, has been described as the most successful so far by an African based artiste in the United States.
During the tour, the E No Easy crooners performed in seven major cities; Houston, LA, Minnesota, Oakland, Maryland, Canada [Toronto] and New York. All the shows were sold out, and the least time P Square spent on stage in each of the shows was two and half hours.
In fact, it was gathered that the Maryland show was almost cancelled due to the fact that the crowd that besieged the venue to watch the Nigerian stars were more than the capacity of the venue.
During one of their performances, Peter was almost raped by some overzealous female fans, but was quickly rescued by Security Agents after the fans almost stripped him. No wonder he was named the sexiest celebrity by Silverbird Television [STV].
According to him, he and his twin brother, Paul, are yet to find the right words to describe the success of the tour, which has prompted American star singer, Drake, to approach them for a collabo.
“I don’t actually know how to explain how successful the tour was because aside the fact that all the shows were sold-out, the passion shown by the fans, particularly the white ones, was incredible. I never knew the Americans love us that much. Surprisingly, they knew the lyrics of our songs and were singing along,” Peter hinted.
P Square and its 12-man band, which include dancers and two bodyguards, were treated like Kings while the tour lasted. Aside being lodged in five star hotels, the tour organizers provided a Limousine ride and tight security for the Nigerian stars all through their stay in President Barack Obama’s country.
Due to popular demand, P Square is expected to continue the tour next year. Their performance train will then move to other American cities like Ohio, Chicago and Atlanta among others, where their fans are eagerly waiting to see them perform.
“They actually wanted us to visit all the cities before coming back to Nigeria, but we insisted that it should be postponed to next year because there are things we need to attend to back home,” said Peter.
Meanwhile, the multiple award-winning singers have finally moved into their N300million mansion in Lola Holloway Street, Omole Estate Phase 1. As part of the plans to move into the mansion in style, automobiles outfit, Coscharis, has made the delivery of four brand new wonder-on-wheels to P Square’s garage.
The new automobiles, two Rangerover Sports, one X6 BMW and a Jaguar, all 2010 models, costs P Square a whopping N65m.
