Nigerian musician, Inetimi Timaya Odon, popularly known as Timaya, and music artist manager, Ubi Franklin revisited their January 2021 clash on Wednesday.
Timaya called out Franklin to focus on his career and alleged new job as a nanny. He also threatened to beat up Franklin, stating that he had done so in January 2021 when they got into a physical fight.
The star wrote,
“Ubi Franklin you remember the beating I gave you in January last year? Don’t let me beat you again, and please I like your new JOB. As Ifeanyi’s NANI and please don’t mess it up. Davido is a good guy he can make your life. Please focus on your new JOB. Thanks.”
In response, Franklin countered Timaya’s claim. He said that he defended himself contrary to the singer’s claim, adding that given another circumstance, he will still defend himself. Franklin stated that he would provide the Close Circuit Television Camera footage of what happened during the said fight. He wrote,
“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 apologise cos he was high and attacked me unprovoked, self-defense came to play.”
He continued, “I made sure he got his, I wasn’t satisfied because they were too many Big Boys/men who knew he attacked me unprovoked because he was drunk and I did mine to fill gaps. I am not a violent person, but I will defend myself.”
The record label boss also said Timaya was bringing the encounter to the public domain because he had called him out over his recent hit-and-run controversy. Earlier, Eelive reported on the controversy.
Franklin wrote on Twitter,
“Timaya is so petty. You are angry because I told how wrong it was to knock a woman down and leave her 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 woman down and left her there. Period.”
