Ned Nwoko links Regina Daniels’ viral outburst to drug, alcohol addiction
By Jeffrey Agbo
Senator Ned Nwoko has addressed the controversy surrounding a viral video of his wife, actress Regina Daniels, describing her recent behaviour as a result of “drug-influenced” actions and “unprovoked carnage.”
In a detailed post accompanied by a video shared on his Instagram handle on Sunday, Nwoko alleged that the actress was struggling with substance and alcohol abuse, which he said was the main cause of their ongoing marital crisis.
“Regina was not always like this. Her current battle with drugs and alcohol abuse is the root of our problem.
“She must continue her rehabilitation programme, or I fear for her life and safety,” he wrote.
The senator claimed that Daniels went on a violent rampage at their home while he was away, physically assaulting domestic staff and vandalising property.
“She slapped and hit three staff in the past 48 hours and destroyed property, including cars and windows, for no just cause.
“Now she has moved to a place where she will have unrestricted access to drugs,” the senator alleged.
According to Nwoko, he had offered his wife two rehabilitation options — one in Asokoro, Abuja, and another in Jordan — both designed to keep her away from substances.
He further alleged that the situation at home had been exacerbated by what he described as the interference of Regina’s friends and associates, whom he accused of supplying her with drugs.
“While I took Moon to the hospital, a scene of chaos unfolded at home, orchestrated by Sammy, Regina’s main drug supplier.
“Another known supplier of drugs to Regina is the tiny evil devil called Ann,” he alleged.
His statement followed hours after a viral video of the actress surfaced online, showing her visibly distraught and shouting during a heated confrontation, which drew widespread public concern.
In the video, Regina Daniels was heard saying, “In Ned Nwoko’s house, I am nothing, but in my own house, I am a Queen. Not again. I can’t stand the violence, it’s too much.”
Her brother, Ojeogwu Samuel Danhillman, popularly known as Sammy West, also reacted angrily on Instagram, accusing Nwoko of assaulting his sister and promising to protect her.
