Ubi Franklin has been the subject of some social media backlash. Following up on his view on Will Smith's Oscar slap on Chris Rock, which Ubi likened to a situation that could repeat itself if Nigerian comedian Bovi keeps making jokes about his baby mama predicament.

It is unclear what transpired between him and Timaya behind social media, but the singer threatened to give him a beating again just like he did "in January, last year."

Timaya, who had threatened to beat Ubi, advised him to concentrate on his new job as "nanny" to Davido's son, Ifeanyi.



"Ubi Franklin, u remember the beating I gave u in January last year? Don’t let me beat u again,and pls I like your new job. As Ifeanyi’s NANI and pls don’t mess it up. Davido is a good guy he can make ur life. Pls focus on ur new job. Thanks," he wrote via his Twitter handle.

Ubi wrote "Egberi Oya na" in response to Timaya's threat.

Ubi later took to his social media platforms to elaborate more on the matter, see his posts below.
