Controversy burst on Monday as Iyanya releases some secrets pertaining his contract with Ubi Franklin and how they fell out in a recent interview hosted by Bolanle Olukanni of Ndani TV.

You remember when it looked like Iyanya sold his shares, left Made Men Music to Tekno just to go squeeze under Don Jazzy? Well here is the untold story.

Well, Iyanya on this interview said he didn’t sell his shares, that he left due to “darkness”.

“What people don’t know is, I didn’t sell my share. People see me and say oh why did you sell your share? I didn’t sell my shares, I left Made Men at the time because there was so much darkness. In the midst of all the wings, I decided to let that go.

“When I said it was darkness, I was not myself anymore because I felt like there was no trust anymore. Because at the time I was singing I co-owned Made Men with Ubi but I later realized that my name was not in any of the forms I signed and I was broken and that was the beginning of me just saying to hell with everything” he said

He went further hailing Don Jazzy, saying Marvin Records was a healing point for him. He finally cleares that no deal was signed between him and Jazzy, more like a ‘haven deal’, which later led to the unveil of Temple Music.

“Mavin was … shout out to Jazzy… Jazzy gave me that platform to put music out because I left Made Men and I didn’t want anything from Made Men, so Jazzy just said look, man, you’ve built something over the years and starting all over is not going to be as easy as you think, so just put out music from here and work on something. So people really thought I signed to Mavin but it wasn’t like a legal signing, it was just love. And then Temple Music came, when Temple music came, I love the vision, I love the dream and I was like Okay, let me try this, and that was when I released “Up To Something,” “Hold On,” I mean,“Good Vibes. And after that, it was time for me to move, because I felt like I got to the point where I have to put out my own thing, have my own family, have my own team”.

“That was healing for me, that was the best time of whole situation I was in, that was the best moment because Jazzy just opened his family and said look, you’re one of us and everybody just showed me that love coz it came from Jazzy. So from Jazzy to Tiwa, to Baby Fresh to everybody, it was just love and that really gave me life because, to be honest with you, I was broken. Like I was broken!” he said

The singer feels threatened to move forward saying some people are working to frustrate his growth in the music industry.

”Iyanya is not quiet because Iyanyan can’t sing anymore. Iyanyan is not quiet because he doesn’t have money to do music. I am just quiet because I have got people using whatever connects they have to frustrate everything that I do”

Meanwhile, no smart accusation goes without receiving smart defence. The man doctor, Ubi Franklin, on Monday evening responded on and IG post with evidence of CAC works and prior chats.

Mr Franklin said,

“It’s very unfortunate that A person I took as my brother had to lie to the world to make himself look good.


Always wait for both sides of the story to call people names.


Here is to prove that iyanya Lied to make himself look good.


Exclusive interview dropping in 1hour.


I have never fought anyone I have worked with, dated or married publicly and I swore never to do that.


We try to settle things in house and if that can’t happen we call on elders to mediate, it has always worked.


Thank you 🙏🏾”

CAC Proofs

Chat Before CAC Process and Agreements

Irrespective, an expert while commenting on Franklin’s said “CAC 7 only shows Board membership and not ownership”.

Now we wait for his own side of the story.
