He scammed me with Davido’s name

• Famous singer, Spyro has called out music executive, Ubi Franklin over unpaid debts.
• He claimed that he was scammed by Ubi Franklin, who used Davido’s name to convince him to perform at an event for 5K.
• Spyro stated that Ubi Franklin is yet to give him the money to date.

Nigerian singer, Spyro speaks on a sour deal he had with music executive, Ubi Franklin.

In a recent interview on The Link Up podcast, Spyro opened up about how he was allegedly scammed by Ubi Franklin, who used Davido’s name to convince him to perform at an event.

According to Spyro, Ubi Franklin approached him with a proposal to perform at a birthday party, claiming that Davido had invited him and would pay him 5K for the performance.

However, Spyro was sceptical about the payment and expressed his concerns to Ubi Franklin, stating that his minimum performance fee was N20 million. Despite his reservations, Ubi Franklin convinced him to perform, and Spyro eventually took the stage.

After the performance, Spyro asked Ubi Franklin about the payment, only to be told that Davido was not aware of the arrangement.

Speaking on this, Spyro described it as a broad daylight scam, stating that Ubi Franklin used Davido’s name to get him.

In his words:

“I have an issue with Ubi Franklin. Ubi just came down and said David said we should come perform at the birthday party that he was invited to that he was going to give us 5k. I called him to the side and said ‘bro first of all, I don’t charge 5k.’ My Nigerian currency wey I dey charge, the least I would do is N20 million.

On getting there, David was on stage, he came back from the stage and Ubi just came to me, he said ‘you’re going on the stage now’ before you know it, MC don announce, Spyro! And right after, I said okay Ubi, shebi you don sha make me, I don perform now, where my money wey you say David say him go give us? He said ‘no don’t go and buzz David o, he’s not the one actually, let me tell you the truth, he’s not the one that said you guys should come and do the show’. I was like are you kidding me? So David doesn’t even know anything about this, so you just used David’s name, this is broad daylight scam bro!”
