Polygamy: “I Feel Sorry for Men With One Wife” – Senator Ned Nwoko

Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North Senatorial District, has stirred public debate after declaring that he feels “sorry for men with one wife,” insisting that polygamy gives men greater balance and stability.

Nwoko made the remark while speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Sunday, where he also addressed recent allegations of domestic violence against him by his actress wife, Regina Daniels.

When asked how he manages his home with four wives—something many men find difficult—the senator paused briefly before responding with a striking analogy.

“That is a different topic for another day. But yes, every man should do that. The example I give is this: just imagine telling you to stand on one foot or leg. You know how difficult it is. But to stand on two, three, four is much more balanced. That’s just the example I give. So I feel sorry for those who have one wife because it’s difficult to stand on one leg,” he stated.

When reminded that the Holy Bible does not endorse polygamy, Nwoko countered, saying, “The Old Testament does. I am a man of faith. But that’s not what we are here for.”

Asked whether he had any regrets about his marital choices, the senator replied confidently, “No, I don’t have any regret. I will do the same thing again. Of course, that’s the way it should be. You should marry who you want to marry.”

On the domestic violence allegations trailing him, Nwoko dismissed them outright, maintaining that he is not a violent man.

“No, come on. You know I am not a violent person. I respect my wives. I love them and my kids,” he said.

Senator Nwoko comments came just hours after Nollywood actress and wife, Regina Daniels, flaunted a newly acquired mansion on social media amid growing rumours of a marital crisis.

Daniels captioned the photos and videos of the property with the caption:

“In my house, I am a Queen! I needed a roof over my head, so I got this for me and my family.”
