Ubi Franklin, music executive and close associate of superstar Davido, has stirred political chaos online after boldly declaring that President Bola Tinubu is going nowhere, despite widespread opposition and backlash.
In a now-viral X (formerly Twitter) post, Ubi, who recently visited Tinubu, didn’t mince words as he ripped into Nigeria’s opposition leaders and social media critics, accusing them of refusing to acknowledge Tinubu’s achievements and misleading the masses with emotional propaganda.
Ubi wrote:
“There are many things President Tinubu is getting right. This new coalition people are hailing? They will not unseat Mr. President. Let’s focus on governors who are swimming in cash and doing nothing.”

'You’d defend Satan too' – Trolls attack Ubi
Not everyone was buying Ubi’s political sermon. One popular netizen, Afam Deluxo, went for his throat:
“With the number of people you allegedly owe and kids you have all over, I wouldn’t flinch if you defended Satan himself.”
But the music exec, known for his no-holds-barred clapbacks, replied like a man unbothered:
“My kids are the best decision I’ve made. I’ve had bad business runs — so what? If this is your strongest line of attack, then I’m really fine. Try harder, next sir.”
In another post, Ubi declared that insulting leaders online is just noise, saying even Buhari survived eight years of internet bashing.
“They insulted Buhari, yet he ruled for 8 years. Now it’s Tinubu. If insults removed presidents, you’d have changed Nigeria long ago. If you want change, enter politics. Stop hiding behind social media likes.”
