OVER the years, some groups in the Nigerian music industry have witnessed breakups leading to serious competition among its members. While some of such breakups were necessary, others left their fans heartbroken. ADENIYI ADEWOYIN looks at some of the music groups that made waves during their reign.

THE latest and arguably the most unpredictable albeit heartbreaking spilt the Nigerian music industry has suffered is that of identical twins Peter and Paul Okoye famously known as Psquare.
Although the group has suffered an off and on rancour before their final separation, until about three years ago, the duo has been up and doing in the music scene both locally and internationally dropping massive hits and shutting down stadiums of about 23,000 capacity in Africa.
Things fell apart when Peter allegedly confronted his twin Paul, and their elder brother and manager Jude for sidelining him in choosing the songs to put out, and that they only selected every song composed by Paul alone.
