After almost five years of separation, the twin brothers reconciled in November 2021, to the surprise of their fans.

In an interview with media personality, Joey Akan, published on Tuesday, Rudeboy revealed that the split was caused by family issues and was not music-related.

Rudeboy stated that despite the anger from fans following the split, he kept mute and didn’t say anything because he knew that the issue was family related.

According to him, P-Square was “the sacrifice” that was paid for the family issue.

He said, “I kept silent. I never said anything. I never said anything, because I knew what the problem was. It was a family issue, and it turned out that P-Square had to pay for it. P-Square was just the sacrifice.”

Rudeboy added that due to his love for his family, he does not owe anybody an explanation.

“It was a family issue, it had nothing to do with music. And because I respect family so much, I owe nobody any explanation,” Rudeboy said.

The P-Square twins turn 40 today, Nov. 18. Paul took to Instagram to share a photo of himself and Peter.

In the caption, he wrote: “Happy special birthday to us.”

He then tagged Peter to the birthday post.

Minutes later, Peter did the same thing as he shared the same picture of himself with brother Paul, with the caption ‘it’s our birthday’. He also tagged Paul to the post

Peter who is now known as Mr P, said this during a recent interview with HipTV.  According to him, he no longer has to split his earnings three ways. He said he enjoys his freedom now.

He said “Hundred per cent, I am. I don’t have to share three ways. Call it greed or selfishness. It’s your own cup of tea. I share with nobody. Yes, my management and my team. Fine. But I’m doing my own thing. I’m freer. I’m making more money. Freedom is key. I can get a call that there’s a show next week and it’s my daughter’s birthday. I can say, ‘cancel it’. As a group, I couldn’t do that. Moneywise, if I used to share three ways, I share alone. What am I doing music for? It’s about doing it how I feel it. It’s not even about the money. But when it comes to that, I make more than I was while in the group”
