Nigerian singer Timaya has taken to the social media platform, Twitter, to threaten to physically assault music executive and talent manager, Ubi Franklin.
Taking to his Twitter page on Wednesday, March 30, singer Timaya stated that he would ‘beat him again’ if they come in contact with each other. Timaya did not state the exact reason why he wants to assault the talent manager a second time.
Timaya who hails from Bayelsa did not stop there, he went on to claim that Ubi Franklin has been employed as the new nanny for Davido and Chioma Rowland’s son, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
The Dem Mama Record label boss admonished Ubi to focus on his new job and rescue himself from any form of assault.
He wrote on Twitter:
“Ubi Franklin u remember the beating I gave u in January last year?
“Don’t let me beat u again it, and pls I like your new JOB.
“As Ifeanyi’s NANI and pls don’t mess it up. DAvido is a good guy he can make ur life. Pls focus on ur new JOB. Thanks”
Timaya’s threat is coming days after the music executive Ubi Franklin called out popular comedian Bovi on his Instagram page, also threatening to slap him should he make jokes about his family.
Ubi Franklin replying to the threat issued by singer Timaya on Twitter, took to his official Twitter handle to post a series of tweets saying:
“Egberi Oya na
Say the truth, talk who helped you that day timaya. you know the truth.
Timaya is so petty. You are angry cos I told how wrong it was to knock a woman down and leave here to her fate. You come to talk trash here today? I am not a person that will see wrong and keep quiet. You were wrong to have knocked that’s woman down and left her there. Period.
I made sure he got his, I wasn’t satisfied cos they were too many Big Boys/men who knew he attacked me unprovoked cos he was drunk and I did mine to fill gaps. I am not a violent person, but I will defend myself.
I know because y’all see timaya act gangster you feel say him fit beat me No Wahala, I go find that CCTV footage From my oga house see how he knelt down to beg. He called me the next day to apologize cos he was high and attacked me unprovoked, self defense came to play,” he said.
Ubi going further with his replies, shared the old tweet about singer Timabaya and the car incident where he also captioned the tweet saying:
“This is the tweet. You are not above the law, you knocked a woman down and expect that I Celebrate you? Never,” he added.
