Nigerian singer Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, popularly known as Spyro, has taken to social media to shade music executive Ubi Franklin for allegedly withholding 10% for a car deal he helped him seal.
Recall that the pair were at loggerheads recently when Spyro asserted in a post online that Ubi owed him $5,000 for a performance in Ghana last year, while Ubi asserts that Spyro owes him 10% for a car transaction that he enabled.
However, in a subtle shade directed at Ubi Franklin, the musician, in a post on his official Instagram page while showing off his material possessions, Spyro noted that God has been faithful to him without taking 10 percent on his faithfulness.
‘‘Frankling speaking, sorry Frankly speaking, God has been faithful without taking no 10% on his faithfulness…’’ Spyro captioned his post shared on Instagram.
His comments come days after insistence that he never made money when he was signed onto the record label of music promoter Paul Okoye, popularly known as Paul O.
Recall that Spyro said in a recent interview that he was signed to a record label run by Paulo, who owned three Rolls-Royces, saying he worked for the label for two years without earning a dime.

According to him, if there was anything he needed to accomplish, he had to borrow money from Paulo. He also added that PaulO is a good man who is ignorant about the ins and outs of running a record label.
Paul O responded to the musician’s accusation by sharing a spreadsheet that detailed payments made on Spyro’s behalf when the singer was signed to his record label.
The music promoter also claimed to have spent N12 million on Spyro in total but never received any money back for his investment.
However, Spyro claimed that he did not lie, and the spreadsheet shared by Paul O further proves his point that he did not make a dime while he was still under contract.
Spyro also claimed that he never approved of any travel figures claimed by Paul O and also recalled that he was once thrown out of a hotel after a One Africa concert staged in Wembley, London, because the room was booked for one day.
