Polygamy brings marital balance, says Senator Ned Nwoko

Senator Ned Nwoko, who represents Delta North in the National Assembly, has said he feels sorry for men who are married to only one wife, arguing that polygamy offers greater marital stability and balance.

Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Sunday, the lawmaker, who is married to four wives, likened monogamy to “standing on one leg.”

“I feel sorry for those who have one wife. Just imagine standing on one leg — it’s difficult. But with two, three, or four, you’re more balanced. That’s the example I give,” he said.

When asked about the biblical stance on polygamy, Nwoko responded, “The Old Testament does. I am a man of faith. But that’s not what we are here for.”

He maintained that he had no regrets about his marital choices, saying, “No, I don’t have any regret. I would do the same thing again. You should marry who you want to marry.”

The senator also addressed recent allegations of domestic violence involving his actress wife, Regina Daniels, dismissing them as baseless.

“I am not a violent person. I respect my wives and love them and my kids,” he said.

His remarks come amid speculation of tension in his household after Regina Daniels unveiled a new mansion on social media, captioning the post, “In my house, I am a queen. I needed a roof over my head, so I got this for me and my family.”
