Encomium Weekly: Whose idea was the concept of the much talked about cake Triple MG made for Iyanya?
Ubi Franklin: It was mine

EW: Did you know it would create so much buzz?
UF: Yes, I did. I knew what I was expecting. With proper planning and the right people around, you can do anything.

EW: How long did it take you to plan the party?
UF: It took me two days to plan

EW: Was Iyanya involved in the planning?
UF: I did not involve him at all. He had no idea till he got there.

EW: Can you estimate how much the party gulped?
UF: We spent $19,000

EW: You also gave the birthday boy a nice gold Rolex, how much did it cost you?
UF: $25,000
