P-Square’s Paul Okoye, also known as Rudeboy, sustained leg injury from a performance in Liberia, Peoples Gazette learnt on Saturday.

The twin musical artists had been in Liberia to perform in their usual energetic way.

In a video shared on the artist’s Instagram stories, Rudeboy was seen laying down in pain, surrounded by his team and brother as they tended to him.

“Injured after performance,” the video was captioned.

Another video showed the singer’s leg being stitched. The video sparked empathy from fans who took turns to offer their sympathies.

Since settling their five-year feud in November, P-Square have revved up their trade, headlining shows and delivering big performances around Africa like before.

Their performances are often marked by impactful stage presence characterised by their signature choreography.
