Since they are fighting now …I am very sure Regina mama go root out the real birth certificate… if she doesn’t .. it means she’s 19 …

saintopus:
I don't know why people keep on with this Regina issues. The girl has already told the world that it's better to cry in a lambogini than to cry in a molue,

If you no send this Regina story like me

Press like 👍

It’s 18. Ned is supposed to be sentenced to life imprisonment. He committed a verified crime in Nigeria by marrying Regina. Why do you think they lied about her age? He knows the law. He lived in the UK and knows or is aware of such laws.

dominique:
See how she looked around the time of her wedding, she looked younger than 19. Pa Chinedu is nothing nothing but a cradle robber and deserves every form of insults Regina and her family are throwing at him. Your 5 wives no reach you, na teenager remain. Greedy old pervert

2mch:
She was 17 at the time. I believe the father in this who was against the marriage. Rita can’t bring out any certificate because she’s on video lying. Regina will though and probably expose Ned too if he keep releasing statement. Which is making this worse.

That girls father came to cry out that his daughter is 17yrs old and he did not consent to the marriage. You saw it, heard his cry but did not care. You were alerted, you knew but that is really what you were after. People with bad intentions don’t need both parent consent. They are happier when there is division.

She even claimed to have turned 25 and you all celebrated her birthday till kasala burst and she went back to her real age of 24.

biafranrealson:
She is not even a graduate

dfrost:
There's no way she was 17 abeg. They should sell another twist.

jaxxy:
There is video with BBC where her mother said she was even 20 years old and old enough to marry Ned since she is inlove with him. That video alone vindicates Ned completely.

Thesame Regina, her mum and brothers disregarded their dad and broke shamed him because of Neds money so who is the real villans her? They took the bride price meant for the dad and told him to go and sit down and keep quiet.

So who is to blame?

BlackAdam65:
That’s not actually accurate. Under Nigerian law, there’s a difference between customary marriage and statutory marriage. The Child Rights Act sets 18 as the minimum age, but not all Nigerian states have domesticated that law. In some parts of the country, especially under customary or Islamic law, marriage is still valid once the girl is considered mature and her family gives consent.
At the time Ned Nwoko married Regina Daniels, there was no legal evidence that she was under 18 her family publicly confirmed she was already an adult, and no official record ever proved otherwise. Allegations about her being younger were mostly internet speculation, not a verified legal claim.
So legally speaking, Ned Nwoko didn’t commit any proven crime. If her parents consented and the marriage followed the applicable customary law in Delta State, then it stands valid in Nigeria.
Also, living in the UK doesn’t mean Nigerian customary law stops applying in Nigeria he followed the law of his home state. Unless there’s solid proof that she was under 18 and that a federal law binding in that state was violated, there’s no legal ground for imprisonment.

Svoboda:
This Ned seems to lack a bit of class. Apart from the mishap of marrying a character like Regina, I expected that rather than go on a social media rant and banter with his estranged wife's camp, someone of his social and political standing would instruct his lawyers or pr team to release a statement that'd address the issue once and for all. He needs to take a cue from how fmr gov Sullivan Chime professionally dealt with his own marital palaver with his former wife.

2mch:
Birth certificate de o. Make Ned thread softly commenting. 49,000 people don sign petition on him head to hold him accountable.

tnerro1:
She has graduated now

2mch:
Anyone can say anything. The adult that married the underage and slept with her is the one who I’ll be held responsible. Rita sef has some charges on her head too.

dfrost:
Bro, leave social media justice. That age matter na nothing.

Make she raise other matter leave age. Even the brother and mama no talk about age. E get why. No fight there.

jaxxy:
when the mother, the girl and her brothers said she is 20 years and only the father said 17 years without showing a birth certificate who should Ned believe?

The father too can say anything it is the claims made by those involved that will determine.

in any case she has 2 kids now do that is water under the bridge.

loffyloffy:
Can you show proof that he didn't?

BigCowHornn:
I always pray that whenever I have an issue that God will save me from being judged by people like you


You only hear what you want to hear but you never hear facts no matter how many times it is shouted

That girl got married 6 years ago and she is 25 now

She has a history of shifting her age but but not date of birth because it is the same on documents

The husband is now telling you that that date of birth is October 10, 2000 but your stewpid eyes cannot see past 17 years

2mch:
It’s something. The guy is qualified in UK as a barrister. It’s also a crime over here which was covered and just discovered. It’s something. If he did the right thing and attempted to respect culture, he would have escaped all this. There is a very good reason why this culture is ther. But he thought he could use money to buy human being without repercussions. Now repercussion full ground. If it’s nothing, why is he coming out to deny the age?

2mch:
Na only the mama talk. The brothers did not feature in 2019. Na now dem show. The father countered and confirmed she was 17. Doesn’t matter if she has 2kids now. It’s statutory rape. She also made accusations of her experience in marriage. Ned should be told to stop trying to harass the family or use his power and money to try to destroy her. All we are doing is analyzing the case. But she can really destroy him. He’s letting his arrogance overwhelm his sense of self preservation.

FaAbData:
I. Nigerian a 17 years old knows nothing, and has no consent. If they get a serious lawyer Ned is in soap

jaxxy:
The greedy family that broke shamed their father can't blackmail Ned. The girl said she's 20 year then and the mother and brother said so too or why didn't they cry foul with their father.

2mch:
See, let me tell you for the future, when you have money it comes with a lot of responsibility. The law could see those less fortunate is your victims very easily. It will be hard to prove your innocence. With money and power comes a lot of responsibility and potential pitfalls. Poor people can play victim easily and win in court. They can say they were coerced, threatened or even blackmailed. Ned has a history of such behaviors with his village people. Ned has been misbehaving for a while so it’s very easy to gather witnesses to his conduct.
