Senator Ned Nwoko has continued to clarify his side of the ongoing marital dispute with Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, following her recent drug test amid public scrutiny. In a statement released by his team, Nwoko highlighted a WhatsApp message he sent to Regina on October 17, 2025, which he says explains the challenges in 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.” According to Nwoko’s team, the message highlights his concerns over late-night disturbances, alleged substance use, and unsafe behaviour in the household. They insist the message provides a factual account that predates public attention or court proceedings. Key points from the statement include: No domestic violence occurred; accusations arose only after the situation became public. No staff members witnessed abuse, and Regina’s mother reportedly admitted a video alleging violence was a prank. Documented concerns about substance use persisted over several months, with erratic behaviour and unsafe associations affecting the household. Independent toxicology reports confirmed substance use, supporting the concerns outlined in the October message. Professional help was offered repeatedly but resisted. The message reflects a final attempt to insist on therapy or rehabilitation. The well-being of the children and Nwoko’s concern for Regina’s health motivated financial boundaries, which were meant to prevent enabling destructive behaviour. Public claims of victimhood, the statement argues, were used to avoid accountability and evade treatment. The October message stands as a real-time record of concern and insistence on professional help, rather than abuse. The statement follows Regina’s public disclosure of a negative drug test, which she said cleared her name. Nwoko’s team maintained that the test only reflects temporary abstinence and does not negate prior independent assessments. As the dispute continues, both parties remain firm in their accounts, with Nwoko emphasising professional intervention and rehabilitation, while Regina disputes allegations of substance abuse and behavioural misconduct. The matter has drawn widespread attention from family, the public, and the media.
