The member representing Delta North in the National Assembly, Ned Nwoko, has said that he feels sorry for men married to one wife.
He said every man should have more than one wife, which, according to him, creates a balance.
“Every man should do that [marry more than one wife],” he said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.
“Just imagine telling you to stand on one leg; you know how difficult it is. But to stand on two, three four is much more balanced.
“That’s just the example I gave. Do you understand this?
“So I feel sorry for those who just have one wife because it’s difficult to stand on one leg,” the lawmaker stated.

Nwoko’s comments came a week after he broke his silence following a viral video that showed his wife, Regina Daniels, in distress.
She had been seen shouting during a confrontation.
“In Ned Nwoko’s house, I am nothing, but in my own house, I am a Queen. Not again. I can’t stand the violence, it’s too much,” she said in the footage.
But in a post and short video shared on Instagram last Sunday, he described the 25-year-old Nollywood actress’ actions as “drug-influenced” and “unprovoked carnage”.
“Regina was not always like this. Her current battle with drugs and alcohol abuse is the root of our problem.
“She must continue her rehabilitation programme, or I fear for her life and safety,” the 64-year-old wrote.
He brother, Ojeogwu Danhillman, also known as Sammy West, however, reacted on Instagram, accusing Nwoko of assaulting his sister and vowed to defend her.
“Anywhere wey man dey beat woman, whether na my sister or not, I go fight with my blood,” he wrote.

“I am not a violent person. I respect my wives.
“I love them, and I love my kids,” Nwoko added.
