Nigerian senator and billionaire Ned Nwoko finds himself at the center of another social media storm as a bold woman publicly declared her interest in marrying him amid his ongoing marital issues with his sixth wife, Regina Daniels.
Public Proposal Goes Viral
The dramatic incident unfolded when a woman identified as Deola shared a video on social media directly addressing the senator. In the now-viral clip, the curvy lady showcased her physical attributes while making a surprising announcement about her marital status.
The aspiring wife boldly stated: "Ned, I'm here o! Free Regina Daniels. I am a virgin, sir." Her message combined a plea for the senator to release his current wife with a declaration of her own purity, creating immediate buzz across various social media platforms.
Social Media Erupts with Reactions
Nigerian netizens quickly flooded social media with mixed reactions to Deola's unconventional approach. While some users mocked the attempt, others questioned the timing and appropriateness of such a public proposition during the couple's marital difficulties.
One user, silviadavis43, commented: "To see girls wey get sense for Nigeria, you go need reach Ghana," suggesting the woman lacked common sense. Another comment from kingelege noted: "Ned doesn't eat exposed food, Regina was well sealed and covered as at the time she was wifed," implying that the public display might work against her chances.
Several comments highlighted the perceived desperation, with olayimartha asking: "Una no get family members online??" suggesting the woman should have family members who would advise her against such public behavior.
Broader Context of Nwoko's Marital Saga
The public proposal comes during a particularly turbulent period in Senator Nwoko's marriage to Nollywood actress Regina Daniels. Recent allegations from Regina's brother, Sweezy, have added fuel to the fire, claiming the senator nearly beat their mother and treated his sick niece poorly by sending her away from his house at 3 am.
Additional accusations include physical aggression toward staff members, including Regina's former personal assistant, Leya. These claims have created a complex backdrop against which Deola's marriage proposal appears even more controversial.
The timing of the video has led many social media users to question whether this is a genuine marriage proposal or simply an attempt to gain online attention. As user kayfnkay noted: "Dey play, cos na she post am. You sabi how many ladies dey DM to replace Regina! Women!!!"
This incident highlights the intense public scrutiny surrounding celebrity marriages in Nigeria and how social media has become a platform for unconventional approaches to relationship building, for better or worse.
