Nigerian politician and actress Regina Daniels’ husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, has denied reports claiming he has married another wife.
The Eastern Updates reports that the viral claim was accompanied by a video showing him with another woman. The report comes amid the ongoing crisis in his marriage to Regina Daniels.
Reacting to the claims in a lengthy statement released on his Instagram page, Senator Ned Nwoko, who described the allegation as “false”, stated that the circulated video was being twisted for clout.
“A video showing a young woman who visited me with her team under Peace Ambassadors Initiative, led by Ambassador Dr. Adejo Sule, is circulating online with false claims attempting to affiliate me with her,” he said.
While denying any personal connection with the lady, he warned that legal action would be taken against anyone deliberately spreading falsehood about him.
“Any further propagation will attract appropriate legal action,” he stated.
Ned Nwoko had previosuly debunked the news of his separation from Laila as a result of the use of Jaruma’s Kayanmata Products, which his sixth wife and actress, Regina Daniels, promotes.
He said the marriage crashed because of Laila’s alleged infidelity, negligence of their children while on vacation, and her decision to undergo plastic surgery without his consent.
“The attention of Prince Ned Nwoko’s media directorate has been drawn to a publication trending especially in the social media linking his separation with his Moroccan born wife, Laila Nwoko, to the influence of local aphrodisiac called ‘kayamata’, vended by one Hausa Saudi Mohammed, commonly known as Jaruma.”
“Our initial reaction was to have completely ignored the silly insinuation but given the pervasive nature of fake news and the tendency of mischief makers to peddle misinformation on the social media, we resolved albeit reluctantly, to clarify issues for two reasons.
“Falsehood gone viral need to be dismantled in order not to create wrong impression before unsuspecting members of the public. More importantly, Prince Ned Nwoko with his global reputation as a foremost philanthropist, distinguished patriot and conscientious billionaire business mogul can never allow shallo tale mongers to impugn his impeccable character and pedigree.”
“Laila was also in contact with a man. She was always on phone with a strange man. From discreet findings, the relationship with the man started sometime in January 2021, but the bubble burst last August when she went on summer holidays in London with the kids.”
