Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has responded to her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, following his recent public statement denying allegations of domestic violence and accusing her of drug use.
Taking to her Instagram page, the actress expressed her outrage, calling out the Delta North senator for what she described as hypocrisy and manipulation. Regina claimed that while Nwoko publicly insists she needs rehabilitation, he privately encouraged her to get high, saying she looked “sexier” in that state.
She wrote, “Ned, how could you lie so openly and without even small remorse? You know my family has absolutely nothing to do with this. You have always tried to cut them off because of the bond we share, and now, you are trying to make them look bad for no reason.”
Regina admitted to using drugs but argued that it was not the real issue in their relationship. “Fine, I did drugs. So what? Is that even the issue between us? The moment we had a fight, you rushed to the public, shouting, ‘drugs, drugs, drugs,’ because you knew it would make a perfect story for the media — something dramatic enough to distract everyone from the real issue!” she wrote.
According to her, Nwoko’s allegations against her family were part of a calculated plan to isolate her from her loved ones. “You want to find a reason to arrest everyone around me so that I will have no one left beside me, no friend, no support, no safe place to turn to. Then, when I’m completely isolated and broken, I will be forced to come back to you because I will have nowhere else to go,” she alleged.
Regina accused the lawmaker of a pattern of emotional manipulation and control. “This had always been your strategy: break people down, make them weak and powerless, and then have your way with them. But guess what? It’s not going to work this time. Not anymore!” she declared.
She further revealed that Nwoko encouraged her drug use for his personal satisfaction. “You say you want me to go to rehab, but you are the same Ned who always wanted me high because, in your words, I’m sexier when I’m high. You liked me that way because it made me wild and romantic exactly how you wanted me to be,” she alleged.

Regina also made several serious accusations against Nwoko, claiming he forced himself on her and subjected her to confinement whenever she resisted. “Why don’t you also tell them how you force yourself on me whenever I say no? Why don’t you also tell them how you lock me up, seize my phones, and suddenly declare me mentally unstable the moment I say I no longer want to be in this relationship?” she wrote.
She continued, “But once I change my mind just to get out of that locked room, suddenly, I’m fine again. I’m no longer mentally unstable, and apparently not in need of rehab anymore.”
Regina also accused Nwoko of having similar issues with other women. “Why don’t you also tell them that all your wives and ex-wives are on drugs? And can you be kind enough to explain to them why that is?” she asked.
She further alleged that he subjected her to forced medical treatment. “Why don’t you also tell them how you lock me up and doctors inject me with drugs meant for people with bipolar disorder? Why don’t you tell them how you take my phone for weeks just because you hate that I talk to my family a lot?” she added.
Dismissing Nwoko’s claims of her being unstable, Regina said, “You have never seen me act incoherent, stumble, or lose control, so stop. Every problem we had started when I no longer wanted you, whether sober or even high. Stop using the drug narrative to create a distraction. Tell people the truth. I understand, sha. You are feeling rejected and hurt, and you are struggling to come to terms with the fact that it’s all over.”
Concluding her lengthy post, the actress insisted that their union had no legal standing. “Let me make this clear: no matter how much you think you spent on me, it can never equal the value of the time I gave you, my prime years, my energy, and the career opportunities I sacrificed while being with you.
And for the record, I would have filed for divorce long ago if there had ever been a legal marriage between us. We were never married in any court of law, and no documents were signed. Leave me alone, Ned. Marriage isn’t by force. Love isn’t by force. Stop trying to control what no longer belongs to you!” she declared.
