Politician and businessman, Ned Nwoko, has highlighted some 10 virtues of his Moroccan wife, Laila.
He lavishly sang his praise in her defence against online trolls, even as his disagreement with his actress wife Regina lingers.
According to him, Laila is reserved and focuses on tangible things.
Listing other qualities, Nwoko noted in a statement: “Anyone who truly knows her understands her gentle nature, her maturity, and her sincere kindness. She is thoughtful, patient, respectful, and incredibly caring. She gives without expecting anything in return and chooses understanding even when she is misunderstood.
“It can be hard to watch unkind words or false assumptions being thrown around online, especially when they do not reflect her character. But I know who she is. I know her heart. I know the honesty she carries and the way she handles even difficult moments with calm dignity.”
The senator representing Delta North described Laila as a woman of quiet strength and genuine kindness, noting that she avoids social media drama and focuses on what truly matters.
He commended her maturity, gentle nature, and selflessness, saying she gives without expecting anything in return.
Addressing the backlash targeted at her, Nwoko reaffirmed his unwavering support, appreciating those who have shown understanding and compassion during the controversy. He stressed that he will always stand by Laila and protect her name with pride.
The senator further praised her calm dignity, patience, and grace in navigating difficult moments, adding that her strength and character continue to inspire him.
He added on the other virtues: “In a world where noise travels faster than truth, I want to take a moment to speak about the woman I know, the woman I love, and the woman I cherish. My wife, Laila. She is a woman whose quiet strength continues to amaze me every single day.
“Laila is not someone who lives on social media. She has never been the type to chase attention or respond to every passing opinion. She prefers a peaceful and private life where her energy goes to the things that truly matter, not the distractions that come with the online world.
“She does not believe in defending herself on the internet because she knows her life and her worth are not determined by online opinions. Laila has always chosen to live authentically and quietly, focusing on what is real instead of what is loud.
“As her husband, I will always stand by her. I will speak for her when needed, and I will protect her name with pride. She has been a constant source of stability and peace in my life, and I am grateful for the comfort and wisdom she brings into our home every day.
“Laila has a depth of character that many may never see because she does not display her life publicly. She moves quietly, loves quietly, and carries herself with grace. Her strength does not shout. Her goodness does not need an audience. She simply remains true to who she is.
“Over the years, I have seen her handle challenges with patience and grace that inspire me. She does not rush to prove herself to anyone. She allows time, truth, and character to speak for her. That is one of the many reasons I respect her deeply.
“To everyone who has shown understanding, compassion, and kindness during moments when the online world becomes harsh, thank you. Your support and fairness mean more than words can express. It brings light into difficult spaces.
And to my wife, Laila, you are valued, you are loved, and you are far greater than anything said about you online. I am proud of the woman you are. I believe in your strength. I appreciate your calm spirit. And I will always stand with you, today and every day.”
