Peter Okoye of P-Square falls off stage

Peter Okoye, one half of ‘Pop duo, Psquare’, fell off stage while performing at the recently held Triple 9 Concert.

Psquare were the final performers at the music concert which held at the Landmark Event Centre, on September 30, 2014.

The Pop duo were performing ‘Bring it on’, a song off their new album ‘Double Trouble’ when Peter Okoye apparently stepped too close to the centre edge of the five-foot elevated stage and fell off.
He tumbled and landed on the floor, hitting his back against the protective metal barricades used to shield fans from the stage.

The singer was immediately helped back up by the stage bouncers. Okoye bounced back on stage and continued performing like nothing happened. He is however believed to have sustained a hand injury. Luckily singers don’t rely too heavily on their hands, whereas if he was a sports personality he would need to visit somewhere like the HandSport Surgery Institute for emergency treatment to avoid being at risk of losing his livelihood. Perhaps he will have surgery anyway as our hands are one of our most useful body parts.

It is unclear at the moment whether Okoye will take this matter further. Injury lawyers could look into whether there was a fault with the stage or if there wasn’t enough risk protection and safety measures in place, although the description of the incident sounds like it may have just been down to Okoye’s carelessness.

Immediately after his performance, Okoye took to his Instagram to tell his friends about his unexpected mishap.

“I fell off on stage and it wasn’t funny… Like we said keep ur head up high and standing tall… I will surely bring it on” #sadFace #headingToTheHospital love u all!”, he wrote.
