The cause of the frit between talent manager, Ubi Franklin and singer, Kizz Daniel has been brought to the limelight.
Glamsquad reported a few days back that Kizz Daniel blocked Ubi Franklin from accessing him on Instagram. Consequently, the latter took to a blog’s comments section to ask if he should unravel the source of their dispute.
In a new 0development, blogger, Cutie Julles who made it known that Kizz Daniel and Ubi were at loggerheads spill the beans.
The blogger stated that the rift began when Ubi got Kizz Daniel a N150 million gig and demanded a 10% royalty, which Kizz agreed to. The former got the payment of the deal and took out his percentage, which was N15 million, and sent the rest to the latter.
Kizz Daniel, upon receiving what was left of the payment from the gig told Ubi to send him the whole money as he wanted to account properly. At first, Ubi refused, but he later obliged after Kizz threatened not to perform at the show. To his surprise, Kizz Daniel had only sent N7.5 million to him, and when Ubi demanded his balance, he made him know that the 10% agreement was between him and his brother.
Thus, the frit between the duo started after they hurled insults at themselves and threatened to take legal action. Kizz Daniel blocked Ubi’s phone numbers from his phone, and Ubi returned the favour and unfollowed Kizz Daniel on Instagram. Kizz retaliated by blocking Ubi on his Instagram.

“Who go solve this N7.5 million f!ght bayi?
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. Hmmm.. And they used to be very very close before this matter o. Abeg, who is at fault here?”
