Popular Nigerian comedian, Mark Angel has shared some light on the viral video of his 13-year-old cousin, Emmanuella, flaunting her body shape in a new outfit.
Emmanuella, who is a comic star, has been one of the trending conversations online as netizens slammed her over indecent dressing in the video.
Mark Angel, however, reacted as he took to his Instagram story, revealing that he never gave his concert to the clip.
He made it known that Emmanuella rocked her elder sister’s gown and posted it on WhatsApp. However, a friend of hers who was hunting for views posted it on TikTok and it went viral.
The post reads, “Dear friends and family, I want to address a situation involving my child: Emanuella’s recent video that has been circulating on social media.”
“Unfortunately, she innocently wore inappropriate clothing belonging to one of her elder sisters without our knowledge, posted it on her WhatsApp status but unfortunately a view-hungry adult (who I believe should have done the right thing by calling to report the child’s behaviour considering that we consider her a family friend) She downloaded the video and posted it on her own tiktok account without considering that the child may have posted that video without fully understanding the consequences.”
“The video was shared without my consent or the consent of her handler. I take full responsibility as a parent, and I sincerely apologize for any discomfort or concern this may have caused. I’m addressing the situation with my child, emphasizing the importance of making responsible choices.”
“Please understand that this was a mistake, and I am taking steps to ensure it doesn’t happen again. Thank you for your understanding and support during this challenging time. Best, Mark Angel”.
