Peter alleged that Jude secretly created a company through which funds belonging to the group were diverted. Jude has repeatedly denied the allegation.
Toyin Lawani takes a stand
Reacting to the controversy, Lawani shared a strongly worded post on Instagram, expressing disappointment over the manner in which the family conflict has played out publicly.
The celebrity stylist questioned why a brother would make comments suggesting that one sibling was succeeding while another was failing.
“Please which kind of brother talks like this in the first place?” she wrote.
She went on to challenge the narrative that Peter was struggling, insisting that the singer appeared to be doing well for himself.
“Does it look like Peter is going down?” she asked.
Lawani stressed that regardless of the issues behind the scenes, family members should avoid publicly attacking one another.
According to her, the latest developments appeared to support some of the concerns Peter had raised over the years.
The designer also referenced the criticism often directed at Peter’s wife, Lola Omotayo, noting that she has largely remained silent despite being dragged into the family dispute.
Lawani concluded by suggesting that the former music group should permanently go their separate ways if reconciliation is no longer possible.
According to her, people sometimes endure unhealthy situations simply because of family ties.
