Nigerian music executive, Ubi Franklin, has said Afrobeats superstar, David Adeleke aka Davido, hired him to be Chioma’s manager.
The Triple MG boss said Davido called him in 2018 to make the request and they have been friends since then.
Ubi made the revelation while speaking about his relationship with the DMW boss (Davido) and his woman, Chioma Avril Rowland on Tea with Taymesan podcast.
He said Davido has always supported him in different ways and never for once judged him for any of the controversial issues surrounding his marriage and business.
According to the entertainment mogul, sometimes whenever he is down and in his worst periods, OBO always calls to cheer him up.
He stressed that he values his relationship with them and loves them greatly because they always stand by him.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) recalls that Ubi got his first tattoo in memory of Davido and Chioma’s late son, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
Ubi, who is also Chioma’s manager and a great friend of the family, dotted on the deceased when he was alive.
On several occasions, Ubi was trolled and called Nanny by critics for babysitting and carrying little Ifeanyi whenever the family had an event or was travelling out of the country.
Ifeanyi drowned on October 31, 2022, in the pool at his father’s Banana Island mansion while his parents were away.
As a tribute to the loving memory of Ifeanyi, Ubi decided to ink the words, “Popsicle” with an image of a dove, on his hand.
