The drama between Triple MG artiste, Emma Nyra, and her label boss, Ubi Franklin is gradually taking new twists by the day.
In an interview with Golden Icon, the female single had sworn that she never dated Franklin, but in another interview with The Cable, the music executive claimed he had a romantic relationship with his artiste, which he regretted.
Franklin even said his affair with Emma Nyra negatively affected his life because “it really dealt me a big blow” and advised others not to try dating their subordinate because he said it is not good for business.
“Don’t ever have any intimate relationship with a girl you are working with,” he warned.
He narrated that, “I was dating Emma Nyra and the relationship didn’t go as I thought it should have gone. When you’re dating somebody and you are the boss, there are things you can’t tell your wife or your girlfriend.
“But if you say it to an employee you are dating, they tend to misbehave. Like, if you tell the others to do something, they will obey without thinking about it. It’s not only me but it has happened to a lot of people, but that is the business lesson I’ve learnt in my life.”
Recounting what his affair with Emma Nyra cost him, Franklin said, “That relationship made me cut off a lot of people and it also made me feel like everybody wanted the same ‘cake’ I was having. I spent a lot of time trying to beef people when I am not supposed to. It really dealt me a big blow.”
“I decided in the end that it doesn’t make any sense and we both understood that and moved on,” he said.
Franklin further said immediately he met his fiancée, Lillian Esoro, an actress in Nigeria, he knew she was his wife.
“The first day I met her, I told her I was going to marry her because her environment was so good for me,” said the Triple MG boss.
He explained that, “I have dated different girls in my lifetime but I believe when you meet a woman that you are going to marry you would know. You might date someone for 10 years and still not get married but the day you meet the person that you are going to marry, you will know.
“I met her after I had broken up with Emma, about four months after. Immediately I saw her, I said ‘You are my wife’. She took it like ‘I don’t know what this guy is saying’. She’s everything I can ever ask God for.
“She’s very brilliant, she can cook. She’s usually quiet and more reserved. She’s not one of those actresses who are just out there and all over the place. She’s very subtle with everything she does. Even to post pictures on Instagram.
“The reason many people never knew we were dating is that she didn’t want us to post any pictures on Instagram. I wanted to put up pictures but she told me that if we made it a social media relationship, then it wouldn’t last.”
