Dynamic CEO of Made Men Music Group, Ubi Franklin has found himself in the spotlight due to his close association with Nigerian music superstar Davido.
Despite playful jabs and online banter labeling him as Davido’s “nanny,” Franklin has made it clear that his involvement is deeply rooted in professionalism and genuine friendship.
His presence during pivotal family moments, such as the tragic loss of Davido’s son, Ifeanyi, has been interpreted by some as extending beyond business, sparking humorous—but sometimes critical—commentary.
Franklin explained that his role in Davido’s life goes beyond music management, describing it as a bond of trust and support. He stressed that his actions stem from empathy and a willingness to assist those he regards as family. Addressing the jokes, Franklin turned the narrative on its head with humor, quipping that he might consider a $200,000 salary if “nanny duties” were on the table.
Dismissing attempts to undermine his professional credentials, Franklin emphasized his extensive experience in the music industry as the foundation of his relationship with Davido. His lighthearted yet resolute response demonstrates his ability to navigate public scrutiny with grace and wit​
