I am not marrying Chika Ike as my seventh wife – Prince Ned Nwoko dispels rumour

In a press statement issued and signed by the Director of Communications on February 17, 2025, Prince Ned Nwoko firmly denied the claims, stating that he is not planning to marry Chika Ike as his seventh wife.

He stressed that the reports circulating on social media are baseless and the result of malicious speculation intended to damage his reputation.

“Our attention has been drawn to the recent false rumours alleging that Senator Prince Ned Munir Nwoko is planning to marry Nollywood actress Chika Ike as his seventh wife and that she is pregnant for him. We categorically state that these claims are entirely baseless and a product of malicious speculation,” the statement reads.

Prince Ned Nwoko also addressed rumours regarding his stance on musician 2Face’s decision to dissolve his marriage with his wife, Annie Macaulay-Idibia.

“Similarly, reports claiming he made statements about 2Face and polygamy are completely untrue. As a public figure and with his wife also being an actress, it is not unusual for bloggers seeking attention to fabricate such stories.

“This office remains available to journalists for verification of information, and we remind media practitioners of the consequences of spreading fake news. The public is advised to disregard these rumours and rely only on official statements from his office,” he added.

The rumours began after Nigerian actress Chika Ike took to social media to announce her first childbirth at the age of 39.

She posted a series of stunning maternity photos on Instagram with the caption, “Life Lately.”

Following her announcement, social media users speculated about a possible connection between Chika Ike’s pregnancy and Prince Ned Nwoko, leading to the spread of the baseless rumours.

Rumours intensified when actress Regina Daniels, Ned Nwoko’s ‘trophy wife,’ deactivated her Instagram account, leading people to speculate that she was either struggling to accept the addition of a new wife to the family or could no longer cope with the mockery on social media.
