Marry Many Wives To Curb Prostitution, Promiscuity – Ned Nwoko Advises Men
Billionaire Businessman and politician, Ned Nwoko, has stated his opinion on the pervasiveness of prostitution and Promiscuity in society.
The former member of the House of Representatives said that if males embrace polygamy, moral decay will mostly disappear.
He claimed that many women in the South, in particular, lack spouses and other sources of income, which contributes to the level of prostitution there.
Nwoko, who is married to six wives, including the actress Regina Daniels, said that the prolonged reluctance of males, particularly those in the Southern region, to accept polygamy like their Northern counterparts would feed the growth of prostitution among their women.
He said: “What some of our girls do to make ends meet is regrettable, and if our men emulate their northern counterparts by having more than one wife, that could probably change the situation.
“The average southerner may have only one wife, but many girlfriends also, and he is spending his money on the girlfriends, sometimes even more than on his wife.
“The man who has three wives, every money he makes is spent on the family, and he is likely not to have any girlfriends or concubines.
“The money those with several girlfriends spend on them is a gift, is not an investment in the family.”
Addressing single parenting among ladies and prostitution in the South, Nwoko stated: “It’s because of men who leave them and do not take care of them.
“If most of us in the south marry four wives, there will almost not be any prostitution business anymore, because they will be at home as wives.”
The father of 19 reinforced his opinion to polygamy by adding: “All you can now do is, if there is any law that stops you from marrying wives, it should be relaxed so that you can behave like your grandfathers and great-grandfathers who were very strong men before the advent of the whites, who came and told you it should be one man, one wife.”
A social media controversy has erupted after media strategist Esther Ijewere accused Nollywood actress Dayo Amusa of plagiarism.
Ijewere alleged that Amusa lifted her Facebook post about singer Asake and shared it on her own platforms without giving credit.
The original post, which Ijewere published on March 15 at 1:15 a.m., reflected on Asake’s childhood struggles, family issues, and the emotional impact of fame.

Later that same day, Amusa reportedly posted the exact same words on her Facebook and Instagram pages, with no acknowledgment of the original author.
Seeing her words being circulated under Amusa’s name, Ijewere publicly called out the actress, demanding proper credit.
She wrote:”Dear Dayo Amusa, You took my post from my Facebook page and shared it as your own on Facebook and Instagram without giving me proper credit. Please, do the right thing and acknowledge my work. It’s important to respect and credit the original creator.”
Following the backlash, Amusa deleted the post from Facebook but left it up on Instagram, where it continued to generate reactions. By that time, several blogs had already attributed the words to Amusa, further frustrating Ijewere.
In response, Amusa dismissed the allegations, claiming she found the post on a friend’s WhatsApp status and did not know who originally wrote it.
She insisted that her #copied hashtag at the end of her post indicated she was not taking credit for the words.
Replying to Ijewere’s call-out, Amusa wrote: “E dey pain you say I no tag your name abi. Pele baby!!! Like I told you in your DM earlier, I don’t know you, let alone knowing you were the original writer. It was copied from a friend’s WhatsApp, and I even screenshot am for you to see.”
She also mocked the situation, adding: “How market? Enjoying the gbasgbos? Have fun and enjoy it while it lasts.”
The controversy has sparked mixed reactions online. Some social media users believe Amusa should have given proper credit to Ijewere, while others argue that using #copied was enough to indicate that she wasn’t claiming ownership of the words.

He further revealed that Asake had taken steps to fulfill his responsibilities as a son, including instructing real estate agents to find him a new home.
“Asake said he will do everything that I want. We have settled, no more problems. They are now looking for a new house that he will buy for me,” he added.
Additionally, Odunsi disclosed that Asake had pledged to take full responsibility for his 11-year-old daughter, Zeenat.
