Denilson Igwe Speaks On Feud With Mark Angel

Popular comedian and skit maker Denilson Igwe has shared information regarding his split from former partner Mark Angel.

Igwe hinted in a teaser for the next edition of the podcast 'The Honest Bunch' that he broke up with Mark after discovering that he was lying to both of them and the other crew members.

He stated that he was the one who launched Mark Angel Comedy and was responsible for filming the material that Mark posted on Facebook in the beginning. However, he did not know when the Facebook page began to generate revenue.

He continued by saying that Mark didn't give him any money from the monetisation earnings until 2016, at which point he handed him N50,000 in exchange for his purchasing a car.

Igwe also alleged that Mark was paying one of the crew’s top stars, Emmanuella N20,000 monthly why they didn’t know that they were making $160,000 monthly then off Mark Angel Comedy’s Facebook revenue.

He said, “I was the one that 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 took one of the cameras. So in our own free time, we will 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 monetised.

“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 haven’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."
