“HE [DIAMOND] WENT ON HIS RADIO STATION TO TARNISH MY NAME. HE ALLEGED THAT I HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH P-SQUARE’S PETER, AND ANOTHER [FLING] WITH MY PERSONAL TRAINER… IF YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO BELIEVE A WORD THAT COMES FROM HIM, THE SAME MAN WHO DENIED HIS OWN BLOOD [HAMISA MOBETTO’S BABY], THEN YOU ARE ALL STUPID JUST LIKE HIM."

“TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, I DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY [DIAMOND AND ZARI] ARE TALKING ABOUT. I CAN NEVER, AND WOULD NEVER SAY ANYTHING. PLEASE, I HAVE A NEW SINGLE, AND I DO NOT WANT TO GET DISTRACTED. I DO NOT WANT TO COMMENT ON DIAMOND’S ALLEGATIONS. IN FACT, IT IS STUPID,” PETER OKOYE TOLD COOL FM SHOW HOSTS.

ADDING, "PLEASE, IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MY TRUTH, LISTEN TO MY MUSIC."

He continued, "Once people find out you are doing good things, the devil [sticks his head into your business]."

MR P SHOOK HIS HEAD AND SAID, "HE IS MY GUY, BUT I DON'T KNOW..."

Now, Mr P's wife, Lola, has responded to the allegations.

She said,

"People send me DMs asking me how I remain sane and composed when so much negativity is thrown my way and my answer to you is simple.

Anger only hurts you! What people think of you is none of your business, you just need to live your truth. When your sense of satisfaction and self-worth is derived from the opinions of strangers then truly you are not in control of your happiness.

This constant need for validation from randoms is so unhealthy. We are always told to stay away from negative vibes or negative people but then how will you grow your Love and Compassion if there is no one to upset you, hate you, hurt you or rub you the wrong way?"
