Senator Ned Nwoko (APC, Delta North) has reaffirmed his love for his wife, Regina Daniels, while shutting down speculation about their marriage and announcing that they are expecting their third child together.

In a on Thursday titled “Six Years Later…She Still Can’t Resist Me,” Nwoko shared a photo of himself and Regina alongside poetic verses celebrating their bond.

“Six years and counting, and what do they see? A love untamed, wild, and free. Regina, my fire, my sweetest delight, Through every storm, you’ve held me tight,” he wrote.

He emphasised the strength of their marriage beyond public scrutiny.

“Not just vows whispered in candlelit air, But a fortress built on love laid bare. No staged perfection, no hollow display, Just two hearts that chose to stay.”

Nwoko also shared a lighthearted moment from their morning conversation, revealing how he playfully proposed to Regina again.

“This morning, feeling bold, and true, I sent you a message, out of the blue: ‘Will you marry me?’ a reckless play,” he wrote.

“Your laughter spilled like golden rays. ‘Hahahahaha! Always! The biggest YES!’ Oh, my queen, you love me so truly. Should I gather the elders, pay the price? For you, I’d do it all anew!”

The 64-year-old senator also addressed critics and societal views on love and marriage.

“They whisper of love in measured tones, As if hearts are caged, made of stone. But ours, Regina, is fierce and wild, A dance of fire, God’s own child.

“Some claim faith but live in disguise, Preaching devotion with wandering eyes. Yet here we stand, bare and true, no lies to hide, no games to rue.

“A good man, monogamous or not, brings peace to the home, keeps it hot. Better to love with honesty bold, than sell a dream wrapped in fool’s gold.”

In response to rumours of marital trouble, Nwoko dismissed the claims and took a swipe at gossipmongers.

“Ah, the gossips, hungry and sly, Spinning their tales, their desperate cry. ‘His arrest is coming!’ but who is he? Even they don’t know, it’s comedy!

“And Regina left? Oh, what a tale, When she’s right here, steady as hail. Wrapped in love, in laughter’s glow, Rocking our babies, watching them grow.

“Their lies will fade, their voices dim, Yet here we stand, unmoved, untrimmed. For love like ours, built on steel, Doesn’t break, doesn’t kneel.”

Ending his post with a big reveal, Nwoko announced that he and Regina are expecting another child.

“Just when they thought they had their say, Baby number three is on the way! A new heartbeat, a love so grand, Another blessing in my hand.”

Speculation about trouble in their marriage arose after Regina removed Nwoko’s name from her Instagram bio and deleted pictures of him, following claims that he was expecting a child with actress Chika Ike.

However, both Nwoko and Chika have denied the allegations.
