Senator Ned Nwoko has said he feels sorry for men who have only one wife, arguing that polygamy brings stability and balance to a man’s life.
The lawmaker representing Delta North commented during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Sunday.
“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,” Nwoko said.
When reminded that the Bible does not endorse polygamy, the senator countered, “The Old Testament does. I am a man of faith. But that’s not what we are here for.”
Nwoko, who is married to four wives, said he has no regrets about his marital choices.
“No, I don’t have any regret. I would do the same thing again. You should marry who you want to marry,” he added.
The senator also addressed recent allegations of domestic violence involving his actress wife, Regina Daniels, dismissing them as false and baseless.
“I am not a violent person. I respect my wives and love them and my kids,” he said.
His comments come amid online speculation of tension in his household after Regina Daniels recently unveiled a new mansion on social media, writing, “In my house, I am a queen. I needed a roof over my head, so I got this for me and my family.”
