Mark Angel No Longer Manages Emmanuella and Success
Mark Angel, the 33-year-old creator of the popular Mark Angel Comedy series, has revealed that he no longer manages teen stars Emmanuella and Success. The surprising announcement was made during a viral TikTok live session, leaving fans curious about the reasons behind the change.
Why Mark Angel Stepped Down
According to Mark Angel, the decision to hand over the management of Emmanuella and Success to a professional agency was driven by his increasingly busy schedule. The content creator assured fans that his decision was unrelated to recent controversies surrounding his brand.
“I no longer manage Emmanuella and Success. They are now being managed by a professional agency because I have more work now and am too busy to manage them. But I still work with them,” Mark Angel said during the live session.
The comedian emphasized that his creative partnership with the duo remains intact despite no longer overseeing their careers directly.
Speculations and Allegations
Mark Angel’s announcement comes amid allegations made by former crew member Denilson Igwe, who accused him of financial exploitation. In a recent interview on the Honest Bunch podcast, Denilson claimed he was cheated out of profits from the early days of Mark Angel Comedy.
Denilson alleged that he was responsible for filming the content during the channel’s early years but was not informed when the Facebook page began generating revenue. He claimed that despite the success of the platform, he received only ₦50,000 in 2016 after Mark Angel purchased a car for himself.
Additionally, Denilson accused Mark Angel of underpaying Emmanuella, alleging that she earned ₦20,000 monthly while the comedy series reportedly made $160,000 monthly from Facebook revenue.
Mark Angel’s Response
While Mark Angel has not directly addressed Denilson Igwe’s claims in detail, he clarified during his TikTok live session that the decision to step down as Emmanuella and Success’s manager was unrelated to the allegations.
By transferring the management responsibilities to a professional agency, Mark Angel appears to be focusing on expanding his personal projects while maintaining a creative role in the careers of the young stars who contributed significantly to his brand’s success.
A Legacy of Laughter
Mark Angel Comedy has been a trailblazer in the Nigerian entertainment industry, with Emmanuella and Success playing pivotal roles in the brand’s growth and global appeal. Fans will now watch closely to see how the teens’ careers evolve under the guidance of their new management team.
