If you are the type of person who stays updated with the news and happenings in Nigeria, then there is a pretty good chance that you have come across the rumour of a marriage between comedienne Emmanuella and Ned Nwoko. As unbelievable as that sounds, it has been one of the most talked-about news in the Nigerian social media space for some time now. So we would be getting into the nitty-gritty of the alleged marriage between the mark angel comedy star and Regina Daniels' husband. But before we move on, please consider subscribing to our YouTube channel to enjoy more exciting content like this. On July 8th, 2022, a journalist named Darlington Chidera Ibekwe on Facebook alleged that Regina Daniels' billionaire husband, Ned Nwoko, was planning to marry child comedy star, Emmanuella and had made his intentions known to her family. Darlington also revealed via his Facebook post that Emmanuella's family rejected Ned Nwoko's offer. But how true is this? Well, let's find out. Emmanuella is a comedian famous for her role in Mark Angel's comedy skits on YouTube. She was born in 2010, which makes her 12 years old as of 2022.
On the other hand, Ned Nwoko is a 61-year-old wealthy lawyer who became very famous in 2019 when he married Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, who was 18 years old at the time. Before that, he had five wives and several children, so Regina Daniels knew what she was getting into. Their marriage created a lot of buzz on social media back then, primarily due to the 40-year age difference between them. But it was also not surprising because Ned Nwoko was known as a polygamist. In fact, the billionaire lawyer stated in an interview that he could marry a new wife anytime he wanted because his religion allows it. Like the news of his proposal to Emmanuella, Nwoko's marriage to Regina Daniels also started as a rumour that the actress first denied before it materialized. Even though the child comedian has now described the rumours as fake news, it is still worth noting that a marriage between her and the billionaire is simply impossible. Without stating the obvious, Emmanuella and Ned Nwoko can not get married until she becomes an adult, as recognized by law. Apart from such marriage being unethical, it would also breach the regulations set by the Nigerian constitution. A seasoned lawyer like Ned Nwoko, who is very aware of the laws, would not want to tarnish his image by marrying an underage girl. That said, if you come across any news of a marital union between the duo, you should probably take it with a grain of salt.
