Music executive Ubi Franklin has addressed rumours suggesting he is Davido’s personal assistant or nanny, stating that such labels are inaccurate and unfounded.
The CEO of Mademusicg clarified his role in response to a social media comment on X that described him as the afrobeats star’s assistant.
Franklin emphasised that he works as a business administrator and has the necessary expertise for the job.
He also revealed that Davido refers to him as a “solutionist” due to his problem-solving skills.
In his post, Franklin stated, “Ubi is the CEO of Mademusicg, and if you see me working for Davido, it’s because I have the required qualifications and experience to do the job of a business administrator.
“David calls me #thesolutionist, do with that what you want. Definitely not his PA or nanny like most of you have tried to taunt me with.”
“If that makes you happy, so be it. I am on the business end, and that’s where I’ll always be.”
The rumours date back to March 30, 2022, when Nigerian artist Timaya referred to Ubi as Davido’s nanny in a tweet.
The label gained traction again in October 2023 when Davido jokingly called Franklin a nanny while they were travelling together.
Franklin has reiterated his focus on the business aspect of his collaboration with Davido, dismissing the persistent taunts.
