Truth About How Much Mark Angel Pays Denilson Igwe and Emmanuella While Earning $160k Monthly

Popular comedian and skit maker Denilson Igwe has revealed details about his fallout with his former collaborator, Mark Angel.

In a teaser for the upcoming episode of ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast, Igwe insinuated that he parted ways with Mark after discovering that Mark was cheating him and the rest of the crew.

He claimed that he initiated Mark Angel Comedy and was responsible for filming the content that Mark posted on Facebook in their early days, but he was unaware when the Facebook page became monetized.

Igwe added that Mark didn’t give him any share of the monetization proceeds until 2016 when he received N50,000 after Mark had already bought a car for himself.

Igwe also alleged that Mark was paying one of the crew’s top stars, Emmanuella, N20,000 monthly, while the rest of the crew were unaware that Mark Angel Comedy’s Facebook revenue was generating $160,000 monthly.

He said, “I was the one who started Mark Angel Comedy. I’m an orphan… Mark was the elder brother of the house. He was a security guard at Kilimanjaro, GRA, Port Harcourt.

“I was learning camera work from a man called Ifeanyi and I stole one of the cameras. So in our own free time, we would shoot comic videos.

“Mark then suggested that we should create a Facebook page to post our comedy videos, which I accepted, not knowing even when it was monetized.

“I just kept filming. Then suddenly in 2014, Mark bought a car. I asked him how he was able to afford it, and he lied that someone gifted him the car and I accepted. I hadn’t received a dime from Mark Angel Comedy revenue then.

“He started paying Emmanuella N20,000 monthly. Her parents were poor, so they didn’t even know the value of what their daughter was doing.

“No one knew the revenue it was generating. 2016 was the first time he gave me N50,000 and told me that the comedy wasn’t generating revenue. And we were making $160,000 monthly off Mark Angel Comedy’s Facebook revenue then.”
