Popular Nigerian comedian, Mark Angel has disclosed that he stepped down from managing the careers of young comedians, Emmanuella and Success, due to his increasingly demanding schedule.
This development follows recent controversy involving former crew member Denilson Igwe who accused Mark Angel of financial exploitation.
However, Mark Angel clarified that his decision was not influenced by these allegations but by his increasingly demanding schedule.
During a TikTok live session which went viral on Wednesday, he explained that Emmanuella and Success are now managed by a professional agency, which will enable him to focus on other projects.
Despite stepping back from management duties, Mark Angel assured fans that he still collaborates with the young stars on creative projects.
He said: “I no longer manage Emmanuella and Success. They are now being managed by a professional agency because I’m have more work now and too busy to manage them. But I still work with them.”
