Denilson Igwe, the alleged founder of Mark Angel comedy accuses his colleague, Mark of earning hugely and paying stipends to him and the child actor, Emmanuella.
2014 saw the rise in popularity of Mark Angel’s comedy, which was frequently portrayed by the three cast members—two men and a minor.
Denilson Igwe claimed to have started the group while Mark was in charge of its online persona, according to a recent revelation on the Honest Bunch Podcast.
He claimed, however, that Mark monetized their social media accounts and kept the money for himself, with the exception of monthly stipends given to Emmanuella.
He also recounted how Mark bought a car from the earnings while claiming to have received it as a gift.
Denilson accuses Mark of ripping off crew of Mark Angel Comedy
“I was the one that started Mark Angel comedy. Mark was the elder brother of the house, he was a security in Portharcourt while I was doing camera work for a man called Ifeanyi.
“I stole his camera and in our free time, I would do those comedies. Mark created a Facebook page and I did not even know when it was monetized. Suddenly in 2014, he bought a car and he said he got it as a gift.
“I haven’t received a penny then and he’d pay Emmanuella N20K monthly. 2016 was when he gave me N50K, saying this thing no dey bring money and we were making $160,000. If you talk about him, it’s either you die or have accident.”
