Music executive Ubi Franklin has set the record straight, denying the label of being Davido’s personal assistant or nanny, which some have wrongly attached to him.
Responding to an X user who referred to him as such, the former artist manager shared his professional role with clarity.
Ubi explained that he is a business administrator, not a personal assistant, and emphasized that Davido affectionately calls him a “solutionist.”
He wrote, “Ubi is the CEO of Mademusicg, and if you see me working with Davido, it’s because I have the qualifications and experience required for the job of a business administrator.”
He continued, “David calls me #thesolutionist—do with that what you want. I’m definitely not his PA or nanny, as some of you love to taunt me with. If that makes you happy, so be it. I’m on the business end, and that’s where I’ll always be.”
The confusion dates back to the 30th of March 2022, when Nigerian artist Timaya playfully called Ubi Davido’s employed nanny in a tweet.
A few months later, in October 2023, while aboard a jet with Ubi, Davido once again teased him by calling him his nanny.
