Senator Ned Nwoko has reacted publicly after a viral video surfaced showing his wife, Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, appearing distressed and emotional. The lawmaker described her recent behavior as “drug-influenced” and an act of “unprovoked carnage.”
In a statement shared on his Instagram page, @princenednwoko, on Sunday, accompanied by a short video, Nwoko claimed that his wife was battling issues related to drug and alcohol abuse, which he said had become the major source of tension in their marriage.
“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.
According to the senator, Regina allegedly went on a violent outburst at their home during his absence, assaulting some domestic staff and causing significant damage to 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,” he alleged.
Nwoko added that he had suggested two possible rehabilitation centers for his wife — one in Asokoro, Abuja, and another in Jordan — emphasizing that either location would ensure she had no access to drugs.
He further alleged that Regina’s situation was being made worse by what he described as the interference of some close associates who, according to him, supply 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 a viral video that circulated on Saturday, showing Regina Daniels in tears and shouting during an apparent confrontation. In the clip, she 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.”
Regina’s brother, Ojeogwu Samuel Danhillman, better known as Sammy West, also responded to the controversy via Instagram, accusing Nwoko of assaulting his sister and vowing to protect her.
He wrote, “Anywhere wey man dey beat woman, whether na my sister or not, I go fight with my blood.”
As of now, Regina Daniels has not made any public statement addressing the senator’s allegations, and the full cause of the dispute remains unknown.
The actress married Senator Nwoko in 2019, and their union — with a significant age difference — has continued to attract public attention and debate.
