Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has alleged that her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, ordered the arrest of her elder brother and sister, with her younger sister also facing possible detention.

Daniels made the claims in a series of emotional posts shared via her Instagram stories, saying her family was being targeted amid ongoing tensions in her marriage.

According to her, Senator Nwoko was using his political influence to intimidate her family members, though she did not disclose the location of the alleged detention or the reason behind it.

She suggested, however, that the arrests were intended to compel her return to what she described as a rehabilitation program.

“Someone please help me! I feel like I’m losing my mind. My big brother and big sister have been arrested; my baby sister might be arrested soon as well until I return and, according to him, return to rehab. I never thought I would do this, but my big brother and sister have been arrested. My baby sister might be arrested soon as well until I return and, according to him, return to rehab. Don’t even get me started on telling the world what you did to me with your stupid rehab talk! You said I’m a drug addict, me I use am rob body sir!
“What other name can you call me? A prostitute? But I will speak on that one day and tell the world of your involvement with everything! I’m trying, I’m really trying to be the bigger person by not saying or doing anything, whereas I’m fuc** young, petty & and immature! So I can act like a fuc** 24-year-old child and speak my pain.”

Regina Daniels noted that she had chosen to stay silent about her husband’s alleged claims because of her children, whom she described as her “greatest challenge in life.” She said she could no longer endure the situation. “Leave my family alone, Ned! And leave me alone too! It is obvious it’s war,” she added.

Senator Nwoko has yet to respond to the allegations. The development has sparked widespread reactions on social media.

Regina Daniels’ Mother Exposes Ned Nwoko

Rita Daniels, the mother of Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels, publicly called out her billionaire son-in-law, Senator Ned Nwoko, accusing him of ordering the arrest of two of her children and exploiting her daughter’s fame, declaring, “Regina spent $50,000 on your campaign!”

Rita, in a video making the rounds on social media, accused the Delta North senator of “humiliating” her family and exploiting her daughter’s fame and finances.

According to her, Nwoko allegedly caused the arrest of Regina’s elder brother and sister after the actress refused to return to him or attend rehabilitation as he allegedly demanded.

In her emotional outburst, Rita Daniels alleged that Senator Nwoko leveraged Regina’s popularity to revive his own public image and political career.

In the video which was filmed at night amid tension, Rita Daniels further claimed that her daughter contributed significantly to her estranged husband’s 2023 senatorial campaign.

“Ned, which money do you have? Regina is the one covering you. When you were campaigning, Regina gave you a whopping $50,000 for your election. People call us gold diggers. You used Regina’s high star to boost your fallen star.”

The actress’s mother, visibly angered, also criticised Nwoko’s handling of his family, suggesting that his children “don’t look like the kids of a billionaire.”

Rita Daniels’ outburst is the latest escalation in a strained relationship between the Daniels family and the billionaire politician.

Although the couple’s marriage initially drew massive public attention due to their age difference, it has in recent months been trailed by reports of tension and separation.

Nwoko, who represents Delta North Senatorial District in the National Assembly has yet to publicly respond to the latest allegations as of press time.
