Popular Nigerian music executive, Ubi Franklin has reportedly unfollowed afrobeat singer Oluwatobiloba Daniel Anidugbe, popularly known as Kizz Daniel on Instagram over an alleged N15 million controversy.
A blogger identified as Cutie Juls recently reported that Ubi Franklin got Kizz Daniel a mouth-watering deal worth N150 million in Lagos Nigeria.
The duo had an initial agreement that the MMMG boss will get 10 percent from the money, which amounts to N15 million.
After Ubi Franklin received the money, he took out his share and sent N135 million to Kizz Daniel, which he was not pleased with and requested for the full amount or he wouldn’t go for the show.
Kizz Daniel, upon receiving the money, reportedly sent five percent to Ubi which is N7.5 million, claiming that he wasn’t the one who agreed to pay the ten percent earlier agreed upon.
Cutie Juls said, “Apparently, Ubi got Kizz Daniel a N150 million gig in Nigeria and initially Kizz agreed to pay Ubi 10% which is N15 million. So since Ubi got the deal with with MMM label, he took out N15 million and sent the N135 million to Kizz Daniel’s account [ @lagosstategovt hope you people have taken your tax 😩].
“Now, Kizz Daniel upon receiving the alert said no, Ubi has to pay the whole sum to him so he can account properly then he would now pay Ubi’s cut as an expense maybe for tax purposes.
“Initially, Ubi refused and then Kizz Daniel said unless the whole N150 million is paid into his account, he won’t go for the show.
“So Ubi then had to succumb and pay the N150 million to Kizz. When Kizz received the money, instead of N15 million, Kizz sent 7.5 million to Ubi.
“When Ubi asked Kizz for the rest of the money, Kizz Daniel told Ubi that the 10% commission was an agreement between Ubi and his [Kizz D] brother and not him. And that he will only offer Ubi 5% which is the N7.5 he had sent him.
“This created a huge argument and Ubi even wanted to take legal actions.
“They used unprinted words on each other and then Kizz Daniel blocked all Ubi’s phone numbers from his phone. Ubi then returned the favour and unfollowed Kizz Daniel on IG.
“Kizz Daniel upon seeing it went ahead and blocked Ubi on IG.”
