Renowned talent manager Ubi Franklin has shared insights on success and business growth with his followers, urging them to take bold steps in pursuing their dreams.
This comes amid reports of his alleged separation from Nigerian music superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, and his wife, Chioma Adeleke.
Franklin took to Instagram to post motivational messages alongside fresh photos of himself, encouraging his fans to invest in their ideas despite any fears or doubts.
“Never too late to start that business idea that’s been giving you sleepless nights. Do it Afraid,” he wrote.
Reports have been circulating that Ubi Franklin and Davido’s professional relationship has ended. Popular blogger Stella Dimokokorkus confirmed that Chioma had reportedly relieved Franklin of his managerial duties. According to her, Franklin has faced professional difficulties since the alleged sack, which was said to be linked to controversies surrounding his business dealings with industry figures.
Adding to the speculation, Davido and his 30BG crew reportedly did not acknowledge Franklin’s birthday, as his photos were absent from their social media pages, raising eyebrows among fans.
Despite the rumors, Franklin remained undeterred, sharing more photos on Instagram while affirming his resilience and faith in divine support. He stated that he shows no sign of weakness and believes in God’s protection and angelic assistance in ensuring progress.
Meanwhile, Franklin was recently embroiled in a public dispute with fast-rising singer Spyro over unpaid royalties. In a viral interview on Echo Room, Spyro accused Franklin of owing him $5,000 for a performance in Ghana. Franklin, however, denied the claim, countering that Spyro actually owed him money from a car deal, where he had expected a 10% commission that was never paid.
Spyro responded this morning with an Instagram post flaunting his material possessions, stating that God had been faithful to him without requiring a 10% cut.
