Senator representing Delta North Ned Nwoko on Wednesday shared a message on Instagram celebrating his other wife, Laila Charani, amid his ongoing marital issues with his estranged wife Regina Daniels.
Senator Nwoko said Laila has shown strength and calm in the face of social media conversations about his family.
In his statement, the senator said, “I want to take a moment to speak about the woman I know, the woman I love, and the woman I cherish. My wife, Laila. She is a woman whose quiet strength continues to amaze me.”
He said Laila prefers a private life and is not driven by online attention.
According to him, she does not respond to social media comments and focuses on matters she considers important.
“Anyone who truly knows her understands her gentle nature, her maturity, and her sincere kindness. She is thoughtful, patient, respectful, and caring,” he said.
Nwoko said it is difficult to watch what he called unkind narratives online but added that he knows Laila’s “heart” and the way she handles difficult moments.
He added, “She does not believe in defending herself on the internet because she knows her life and her worth are not determined by online opinions.”
Nwoko also reaffirmed his commitment to her.
“As her husband, I will always stand by her. I will speak for her when needed, and I will protect her name,” he said.
The senator credited Laila with bringing peace and stability into their home, noting that she does not put her life on display.
“Her strength does not shout. Her goodness does not need an audience,” he said.
Nwoko also thanked those who, in his view, have shown understanding during tense moments online.
