Senator Ned Nwoko has continued to address his ongoing marital dispute with Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, following her recent drug test amid public scrutiny.
In a statement released by his team, Nwoko shared a WhatsApp message he sent to Regina on October 17, 2025, detailing issues he says led to the breakdown of their household. The message reads:
“I won’t accept your friends coming here at odd hours again. First it was glam on Sunday night. I spoke with two of you to go to sleep at 1am or she should leave. She didn’t do either. It was an all night of noise and music and all that goes with it. By 3am another two friends joined you. They left the following afternoon. Again today, I asked you to go to bed at 3am. You refused. It was the noise of doors downstairs that woke me up. Lo and behold, you and Sonia were heading to your room at exactly 3.30am. You have shown so much disrespect in the past few days. I don’t know who is giving you drugs amongst them and this lifestyle is totally unacceptable and we can’t continue like this. It is either you continue with your therapy or you check into the rehab in Asokoro. My health is deteriorating because of your situation. I am worried about your life and what will happen with the kids. More importantly I won’t fund your lifestyle again until you are fully rehabilitated.”
Nwoko’s team said the message highlights his concerns over repeated late-night disturbances, alleged substance use, and unsafe behaviour in the household. They insisted it provides a real-time account of the private challenges, predating any public attention or court proceedings.
The statement also addressed broader issues in the dispute:
- No domestic violence occurred; allegations surfaced only after the situation became public. Household staff reportedly never witnessed abuse, and Regina’s mother admitted that a viral video suggesting violence was a prank.
- Documented substance use over several months led to erratic behaviour and unsafe associations within the household.
- Independent toxicology reports confirmed substance use, corroborating Nwoko’s concerns.
- Therapy and rehabilitation were offered repeatedly but resisted; the October message reflects a final effort to insist on professional help.
- Financial boundaries were introduced to prevent enabling destructive behaviour, not as punishment.
- Public victimhood, according to Nwoko’s team, became a strategy to evade accountability and treatment.
- The October message stands as a factual record reflecting concern for health, safety, and the wellbeing of the children, rather than abuse.
The clarification follows Regina’s disclosure of a negative drug test, which she shared publicly to defend herself. Nwoko’s team responded that the result reflects temporary abstinence and does not invalidate earlier independent medical assessments that will be presented in court.
As the marital dispute continues, both parties have maintained their positions, with Nwoko emphasizing intervention, rehabilitation, and family wellbeing, while Regina denies allegations of substance abuse and behavioural issues. The case has drawn widespread attention from family, media, and the public.
