Laila Charani, the fifth wife of Nigerian politician and businessman Ned Nwoko, has directly responded to social media users who suggested her husband might be preparing to marry a younger woman. The Moroccan beauty took to Instagram to share romantic photos with her husband, sparking both support and criticism from online followers.
Social Media Clash Over Romantic Photos
On November 22, 2025, Laila Charani posted several affectionate pictures with Ned Nwoko on her Instagram account, captioning them "With my lovely husband." The images showed the couple appearing close and comfortable together, but they quickly attracted negative comments from some social media users.
One user, iamakua_sika_korankye, commented: "Aww, you've been missing this for a long time. If only he loves you from his heart, we pray he doesn't marry another younger girl to console himself. Or maybe he will manage you."
Laila's Unexpected Response to Critics
Rather than becoming defensive, Laila Charani surprised many by stating she would welcome a new wife if it happened. "I will welcome the new wife. I am here for him," she responded directly to the criticism.
Another troll attempted to compare her relationship with Nwoko to his dynamic with his famous actress wife Regina Daniels, noting: "I might be wrong, but he never looks at you in admiration the way you look at him. You're the one holding his hands most of the time, while he's always the one holding Gina."
Laila responded to this comment with laughing emojis, showing she wasn't bothered by the comparison. When another commenter called her a "shameless woman" who had no choice in the matter, she fired back: "I think you don't have a choice. I've already lived my life."
Living Her Best Life Despite Criticism
Not content with simply responding to individual comments, Laila Charani made her position clear with a separate post declaring "I am living my best life. Keep looking at me." This statement served as a powerful message to her critics that she remains confident and satisfied with her life choices.
The online discussion attracted numerous reactions from social media users with varying perspectives. User comfort_stans questioned: "Ohh she say we should not believe whatever they said online ??????? that means we shouldn't believe her own lie against Regina ??? , confused Morocco wife."
Meanwhile, iam_odogwu1 observed: "From her response u, will know how peaceful she is?." Another user, jernald_couture_, praised her approach: "The fact she knows how to respond to critics without throwing shades is what I like. Just let them be."
Broader Context of Ned Nwoko's Marital Dynamics
The social media exchange occurs against the backdrop of ongoing public discussion about Ned Nwoko's polygamous marriages and the recent drama surrounding his relationship with Nollywood actress Regina Daniels. The 63-year-old politician is known for having multiple wives, with Regina Daniels being his sixth and most publicly visible spouse.
Interestingly, the timing of Laila's posts and responses comes as a throwback video of Regina Daniels has resurfaced online. The 2023 recording captured the actress answering difficult hypothetical questions about the two most important men in her life at that time - her husband and her biological father. This resurfaced content is now being viewed through the lens of her widely publicized marital breakdown in 2025.
User chigal_m offered a balanced perspective on the situation: "But na still her husband na. When she had issues with him Regina was posting pictures with him. So let her be. No one can truly knows what goes on behind closed doors in a marriage."
As the online conversation continues, Laila Charani appears determined to maintain her position and share her relationship with Ned Nwoko on her own terms, regardless of public opinion or comparison to his other wives.
