Senator Ned Nwoko has broken his silence following a viral video showing his wife, actress Regina Daniels, in distress. He recently described her recent actions as “drug-influenced,” and Nigerians have been reacting.
In a lengthy post and a short clip shared on his Instagram handle, Ned revealed that Regina is currently battling drug and alcohol abuse.
According to him, her abuse of drugs and alcohol is the root of the current crisis rocking their marriage, and he fears for her life and safety if she refuses to continue her rehabilitation.
Nwoko stated that Regina recently went as far as attacking staff and destroying properties in his absence during one of her outbursts.
“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.
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,” he said.
The politician further noted that he had offered his wife two rehabilitation options in Asokoro or Jordan, where she will not have access to drugs, but she rejected the idea.
Ned concluded by saying that if he were indeed a woman beater, his other wives would have called him out online before now.
“I have other wives, and none will ever accuse me of violence.
Regina is the violent one here, slapping and hitting 3 staff in the past 48 hours and destroying property, including cars and windows, for no just cause.
The truth is, I have set a clear condition for her to accept rehab in Asokoro or outside Nigeria especially Jordan where she will not have access to drugs.
A clear headed regina would have taken moon to the hospital but instead she even threatened to kill our resident nurse (for exposing her drugs abuse).
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 added.
