Ned Nwoko, a well-known Nigerian politician and businessman, has quietly denied reports of a marital problem with his Moroccan wife, Laila Charani.
Nwoko and his younger wife, actress Regina Daniels, unfollowed Laila on Instagram, causing social media to buzz and stoking rumors of domestic strife.
Following what seemed to be a covert social media competition between Regina Daniels and Laila, the rumors began to circulate.
But Nwoko shared a sweet family moment on his Instagram feed, showing a peaceful evening with Laila and their kids.
The family was shown in the film playing sports together, radiating warmth and togetherness. “Sports and family: the ultimate Sunday evening blend with my wife, Laila, and the kids,” he captioned the photo.
Many fans have praised the family for keeping a united face, and the post has been seen as a clear response to the ongoing rumors. Nwoko’s action implies that everything in his polygamous household is going fine, even in spite of the unfollowing episode.
“This is very nice, please take care of Madam Laila and don’t make her feel cornered,” responded social media user @queen_ve_ro.
“Is it her turn to be carried about?” wrote another user, @uzy_fashion_stores. Let Regina enjoy her husband a little before she returns, as she doesn’t travel.
