While many wealthy individuals fear death, Peter Okoye of the now-defunct music group P-Square, has revealed to everyone that cares to know that his greatest fear is poverty.
Known as Mr P, he explained that he fears being poor because he has experienced it before and does not want to return to that state.
He made the shocking revelation during a recent interview.
He said; “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.”
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
“We were living in a boys’ quarter, me, my mum, my dad, all of us. The whole family, six boys and two girls living in a one-bedroom apartment. They had to divide the room with a curtain.”
“So, the landlord had sold the compound, we were trying to plead to get some time to plan our relocation and then a bulldozer came and started demolishing the house while we were still in the building.”
