Peter Okoye has responded to the backlash over his decision to change his birthday date, brushing off critics and describing the reactions as unnecessary.
He questioned why the change of a personal date was causing so much anger, suggesting people were reacting as though something serious had been taken away from them.
He said: Una dey vex like say I cancel Christmas?
Na my birthday date I move… no be your own, why e dey pain you?
Even Jesus Christ December 25th date sef, people still dey debate am
Why cry more than the bereaved? Only in Nigeria
Funny how my birthday date shift is causing more pain than Nigeria’s real problems
Just for the record: Insult no dey reduce success. Who don make am, don make am! Know that and know peace
#OGForever
He maintained that the decision is strictly personal and insisted that public criticism or insults have no effect on his success, adding that those who have already achieved their goals remain unaffected by negativity.
