Music executive Ubi Franklin has addressed misconceptions about his role in the Davido camp, clarifying that he is neither the singer’s personal assistant nor nanny, as some have alleged.
Franklin, who serves as the CEO of Mademusicg, made the clarification in response to a comment on X (formerly Twitter), where a user referred to him as a personal assistant to Davido and his wife.
Setting the record straight, Franklin described himself as a business administrator and emphasized his professional qualifications and experience.
He also revealed that the Afrobeats star refers to him as a “solutionist.”
“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,” Franklin wrote.
“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.”
This is not the first time Franklin’s association with Davido has drawn public attention. In March 2022, Nigerian artist Timaya referred to Franklin as Davido’s “employed nanny” in a tweet.
The conversation resurfaced in October 2023, when Davido jokingly called Franklin a nanny while they were on a private jet together.
