In other news, Mr. P has changed his birthday. His twin brother also changed his birthday. To the same date. Nobody knows what is happening.

I want to start by saying that I have covered a lot of stories on this platform. I have seen things. But nothing, absolutely nothing has prepared me for what the Okoye brothers are doing to this country. The moment you think they have done the worst thing, they release another collabo and show you that they are just getting started.

Mr. P, Peter Okoye, formerly one half of P-Square, currently one hundred percent of a headache, announced this week that he is changing his birthday from November 18th to November 30th. His reason was that November 18th belongs to "the group era" and he is now a solo artiste who deserves a solo birthday. Does this make sense? No! But lets continue.

Two days later, Paul Okoye, also known as Rude Boy, (Thank God he knows), formerly the other half of P-Square, currently one hundred percent of another headache, also announced he was changing his birthday. From November 18th. To November 30th. Same date. Different announcement. Same energy. It's funny how he didn't realise that leaving it at the 18th automatically makes him the first son and the heir to the throne. But what do I know.

(sips tea like Taymesan)

I read this three times. I called my mother. She said she did not understand and that maybe the Okoyes need deliverance.

When Paul was asked why he chose the same date as his brother, he said he "did not know" Peter had chosen November 30th. Which is the kind of thing that only happens when you have been sharing a brain with someone for forty-something years and cannot fully disconnect even when you are desperately trying to.

(hisses like Patience Ozokwo)

There are now two men in Nigeria, born on the same day, who have both independently decided to abandon that day and have chosen the exact same replacement day. Nigerian courts are reportedly being consulted on who owns November 30th.

Their mother has refused to comment.

Honestly? Smart woman.

Edgar doesn't lie.

Source: The twins. Separately. They gave us the same story without consulting each other. We are as confused as you are.

If you think the Okoye brothers are a lot to handle, wait until you read about Portable spending Burna Boy's ₦20 million on something nobody asked for. Read it here: Portable Has Already Spent Burna Boy's ₦20 Million. You Won't Believe What He Did With It.

And if all of this is making you question the decisions men make in this life, so am I. Listen to my podcast, Why Am I Still Single? Available right here on checkedgar.com.

Edgar doesn't lie.
