I’m Not  Afraid of Death, But Only Poverty-Peter Okoye 

Seun Emmanuel Famous Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye, also known as Mr P, has revealed that his greatest fear is poverty. Speaking on a recent episode of the Nancy Isime Show, Mr P said he is not afraid of death, but of being poor. Recounting a childhood experience when his family’s rented single-room apartment was demolished after the landlord sold the property, the singer said he does not wish to return to poverty. 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 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.”
