Award-winning Nigerian singer Davido, popularly known as OBO (Omo Baba Olowo), has once again found himself at the center of controversy after his reaction to an ongoing feud between talent manager Ubi Franklin and rising artist Spyro. The drama, which began with subtle jabs on social media, took a sharp turn when Davido chimed in, prompting mixed reactions from fans and industry watchers.
The conflict between Ubi Franklin and Spyro reportedly stems from contractual disagreements and allegations of betrayal. As the situation escalated, Spyro took to social media to express his grievances, accusing Ubi of trying to undermine his career. Ubi, in turn, defended himself, claiming he had Spyro’s best interests at heart.
Davido’s reaction to the unfolding drama has added fuel to the fire. Known for his outspoken personality, Davido commented on the matter through a series of cryptic tweets, which many interpreted as taking sides. One of his tweets read, Some people can’t handle success, a statement fans believe was aimed at Ubi Franklin.
While some praised Davido for speaking out, others criticized his involvement, accusing him of escalating the feud rather than mediating. Social media platforms have since been flooded with debates about his role in the drama, with hashtags like #DavidoSpeaks and #SpyroVsUbi trending across Nigeria.
Industry insiders suggest that Davido’s influence and public commentary have amplified what might have otherwise been a private dispute. Critics have urged the artist to use his platform to promote peace and mentorship within the industry rather than fueling conflicts.
Amid the drama, Spyro has gained significant attention, with many fans rallying behind the budding artist. Ubi Franklin, however, has called for calm, emphasizing the need for dialogue over public altercations.
As the story continues to unfold, the spotlight remains on Davido, whose actions have once again highlighted the complexities of celebrity influence in the Nigerian entertainment industry. Whether his involvement will lead to resolution or further discord is a question only time will answer.
