I’ll Beat You (Mark Angel Comedy) had the most views on YouTube in Nigeria in 2016.

Her video, I’ll Beat You (Mark Angel Comedy) had the most views on YouTube in Nigeria in 2016. The list also included AY and actress; Jenifa. Tiwa Savage’s explosive interview also led the pack. Google reveals that it was the second most-watched video in Nigeria in 2016.
