Early Life & Education
Emanuella Samuel was born on the 22nd of July, 2010, in Port Harcourt, River State. She hails from Imo State, which falls in the eastern part of Nigeria. As it has been claimed in various sources that she is Mark Angel‘s niece and others that they are cousins, there have been disputes regarding her relationship with him.
Career
At the age of five, Emmanuella began her comedy career. She met Mark Angel while on a family vacation. He phoned a few kids he knew for the audition since he wanted some kids for his comedy shoot, but they couldn’t memorize their lines, so he resorted to Emmanuella. Emmanuella performed admirably despite the 18-hour film shoot, which he staged to test the youngsters’ stamina. After being chosen, Angel had to persuade her parents to allow her to join the Mark Angel Comedy team, which she eventually succeeded in doing.
She also appeared in the Australian film Survive or Die. After performing the comic skit “This is Not My Real Face Oh,” in which she made jokes about a headmistress to her fellow students without realizing the student was the headmistress’s child, she gained attention. On CNN‘s Facebook page, a brief skit like this one was posted. Emmanuella, Success, and Regina Daniels appeared in a play by Ofego titled “Lockdown” on his YouTube channel on April 2, 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdowns, using archival video.
