‘God is good’ — May D reacts as Nigerians drag his former boss, Jude Okoye
May D has posted a cryptic "God is good" message as fresh allegations against his former boss Jude Okoye spread online.
Peter Okoye has accused Jude and Paul Okoye of financial misconduct and alleged attempts to restrict his use of P-Square songs.
Jude has denied the allegations, while the EFCC case against him over alleged royalty conversion remains ongoing.
Nigerian singer May D, born Akinmayokun Awodumila, has appeared to react to the renewed backlash against his former boss, music executive Jude Okoye, with an Instagram Story that has stirred fresh conversation online.
The post featured a meme showing a man watching from a distance as Nigerians called out Jude Okoye, captioned simply, "God is good!!" May D did not name Jude directly or explain the post further, but the timing has led many to interpret it as a reaction to the executive's mounting troubles.
The backlash follows a fresh wave of public allegations from Jude's younger brother, Peter Okoye, formerly of the defunct music duo P-Square.
In a continuing tell-all video series, Peter has accused Jude, alongside their other brother Paul Okoye, of secretly setting up an offshore company, Northside Music, without his knowledge, removing him as a signatory on a company bank account, and diverting over $1.2 million in royalties.
Peter also alleged that Jude and Paul recently served him a legal letter attempting to stop him from performing P-Square songs, claiming Jude now asserts sole ownership of the group's name.
Jude has firmly denied the allegations. In a video response, he said all royalty payments were properly documented and carried out according to existing agreements, including one payment Peter himself allegedly instructed be split in 2016.
He also denied ever removing Peter as a signatory to the group's accounts, saying bank mandate documents already presented in court prove otherwise.
Jude and Northside Music Limited were formally arraigned in March 2025 on charges relating to the alleged conversion of over $767,000 in royalty payments, and have pleaded not guilty. The case remains ongoing, with a June 2026 hearing adjourned after Peter failed to appear for cross-examination.
Notably, the EFCC has since told the court it does not have evidence to support one of Peter's specific claims, that Jude and Paul fraudulently withdrew $800,000, though the broader case against Jude continues.
May D's connection to Jude dates back over a decade. The singer was signed to Jude's Square Records before their business relationship ended in 2012. He has spoken about the experience publicly in the years since, though carefully.
In 2025, when Jude faced a separate public dispute with former artiste Cynthia Morgan, May D notably declined to weigh in against his former boss at the time, saying he had made peace with his past and moved on.
His latest post, while indirect, has been read by many as a departure from that earlier restraint, with fans and commentators online interpreting the "God is good" caption as May D quietly acknowledging the accusations now surrounding the man he once worked under.
