Ned Nwoko Fires Back: Accuses Regina Daniels of Drug Abuse Amid Marital Crisis

Just a day after Regina Daniels tearfully accused Ned Nwoko of orchestrating an assault on her and her family with hired thugs, forcing her to flee their home, Nwoko took to social media to defend himself. In a detailed post shared on October 19, 2025, he denied any involvement in violence and instead pointed the finger at Daniels, claiming her struggles with drug and alcohol addiction are at the heart of their marital woes.

Nwoko's statement, titled "Regina’s Unprovoked Carnage and Rampage in My House and in My Absence," described a chaotic scene that unfolded while he was away. He alleged that Daniels, under the influence, went on a destructive spree, smashing windows in their lavish home and even damaging his prized red Ferrari with a pole, as captured in a 33-second video he attached to the post. The footage shows shattered glass doors and a cracked windshield on the luxury car, which social media users estimate is worth around 350 million naira.

But the accusations didn't stop at property damage. Nwoko claimed Daniels has become "the violent one," slapping and hitting three staff members without cause in the past 48 hours and even threatening to kill their resident nurse after the nurse reportedly exposed her substance issues. He expressed deep concern for her well-being, insisting she complete a rehabilitation program either in Asokoro, Abuja, or abroad in Jordan to ensure she stays away from drugs.

In a move that's sure to fuel more whispers in celebrity circles, Nwoko named two people as her alleged drug suppliers: her brother Sammy (Samuel Daniels, also known as Sammy West) and a woman he referred to as "the tiny evil devil called Ann." Speculation online quickly linked "Ann" to Annie Idibia, the ex-wife of singer 2Baba, though Nwoko didn't elaborate further. Investigative journalist Kemi Olunloyo, who claims to have spoken directly with Nwoko, backed up these details, adding that Daniels allegedly filmed him in a private moment while high and destroyed multiple vehicles.

The couple's young son, Moon, was also dragged into the narrative. Nwoko said he had to rush the child to the hospital himself during the turmoil, as Daniels was reportedly too impaired to handle it. He emphasized his polygamous lifestyle, noting that none of his other wives have ever accused him of abuse, and portrayed Daniels' decision to leave as a bid for "unrestricted access to drugs."

Social media exploded within hours of Nwoko's post, racking up over 1.4 million views, thousands of likes, reposts, and heated debates. While some users sympathized with Daniels, suggesting mental health struggles, others criticized Nwoko for airing dirty laundry publicly as a serving senator. Filmmaker Stanley Ontop questioned the narrative, implying Nwoko might have struck first.

This escalating scandal has drawn parallels to other high-profile Nollywood breakups, raising questions about power dynamics in age-gap marriages. Daniels was just 20 when she wed the 64-year-old Nwoko in 2019. As the dust settles, fans are left wondering if reconciliation is possible or if this is the end of one of Nigeria's most talked-about unions.

No official response from Regina Daniels or authorities like the NDLEA has come yet, but with the story spreading like wildfire across platforms, more revelations could surface soon. Stay tuned for updates on this gripping celebrity saga.
