Regina Daniels has broken her silence following reports of a deepening rift with her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, which allegedly led to the arrest of her siblings.
The Actress and film producer reflected on the struggles she faced when insisting on marrying Ned, despite opposition from her family.
The 24-year-old said “My mum warned me, my brothers warned me, everyone warned me. Yet I drove out at night saying I would kill myself if I didn’t marry Ned. I even went to the police station crying that my family was against me marrying the love of my life.”
She admitted that while her marriage initially seemed rosy, joining a polygamous family is now a decision she regrets.
She also described enduring immense pressure since the marriage began to unravel, emphasizing her restraint for the sake of her children, Khalifa and Munir.
Regina further alleged that her siblings’ arrest was intended to coerce her into returning to Ned Nwoko’s home, expressing frustration that her private struggles have become a public spectacle.
Addressing widespread rumors, she clarified that she did not marry for wealth, highlighting that she was already financially independent and the main provider for her family prior to the marriage. She admitted that marrying Ned was a youthful decision driven by love.
Regina took to her Instagram Story, expressing that she felt as though she was “losing her mind” over the lawmaker’s continued targeting of her family.
Regina wrote: “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.”

Furthermore, Regina urged Mr Nwoko to stay away from her and her family, reiterating that she was no longer interested in their marriage.
She explained that she chose to remain silent and not respond to Mr Nwoko’s allegations out of consideration for her sons and family, whom she described as her “greatest challenge in life.”
“Leave my family alone, Ned! And leave me alone, too! It is obvious it’s a war! It’s a big shame that the whole world will ridicule the beautiful but short legacy we built. Must things go completely south if partners are no longer interested?
“Guys, I tried to stay mute on things. My sons and family are the biggest challenge of my life, but I will overcome and give them what they all truly deserve. This is so freaking embarrassing! A hard girl like me is crying,” said Regina.
She vowed to stand by her brother, alleging that the police tortured him as though he was a criminal.
She noted, “Imagine the Nigerian police beating up my brother like a criminal. What exactly was the violent arrest for? Ned: You have power, connections and money, right? Wild for you to think I have none.
“What I wouldn’t want to do to you is to let the man see, or rather, once seen as an iroko fall before everyone because you bloody know your ‘little girl Gina’ is capable of that! I hate this feeling of wishing my boy’s father’s name remains a legacy. You know why? Boys don’t grow to change their surnames.”
Mr Nwoko is yet to react to the latest allegations as of press time.
