Ubi Franklin, a music businessman, has issued a warning that those suspected of being involved in concerted internet attacks against artist Davido, his wife Chioma Adeleke, and members of the Adeleke family may face legal action.

In a series of posts on X on Tuesday, Franklin, the self-described manager of Chioma, implied that law authorities will soon take action against those responsible for what he called organized abuse and trolling.

“You are aware that individuals are wicked, correct? He wrote, “The message I see on this group chat is just,” alluding to offensive material purportedly sent at the pair in private discussions.

In a follow-up post, he issued a stronger warning: “One after the other, you will explain to the law enforcement what Chef Chi has done to all of you. Just keep opening groups to bully her.

“Her husband, me as her manager, and the entire family have your time now, and we will follow the rules, and you will be served.”

Franklin’s comments point to what he claims is a pattern of organised cyberbullying, allegedly carried out through multiple group chats and online communities.

He claims that the attacks involve persistent and deliberate attempts to harass Chioma, also referred to as Chef Chi, and those in her immediate vicinity, going beyond simple criticism.

Additionally, he called the behavior “outright bullying” and urged onlookers to call it that instead of writing it off as standard criticism of celebrities.

Chioma has frequently been at the centre of online scrutiny, largely due to her high-profile relationship with Davido.

Discussions about her on social media often include criticism of her fashion and public appearances, commentary on her lifestyle and brand as a celebrity chef, spillover from fan rivalries involving Davido and other artists, and renewed attention tied to Davido’s past personal controversies.
