Regina Daniels Breaks Down In Tears, Says She’ll Return To Ned Nwoko If It Secures Brother’s Release
Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has broken down in tears over the prolonged detention of her brother, Samuel “Sammy West” Daniels, who remains in police custody under what she described as unfair and inhumane circumstances.
In an emotional Instagram video on Friday, the actress said she was mentally and emotionally exhausted, revealing that she would consider returning to her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, if that was the only way to secure her brother’s release.
Regina had earlier accused Nwoko, who represents Delta North in the Senate, of being behind Sammy West’s arrest. The lawmaker has yet to publicly address the allegation, even as calls grow from her siblings and fans demanding the young man’s freedom.
According to her brother, Sweezzy, who posted an update on Thursday, Sammy West was brought before a court and subsequently remanded in Suleja Prison, Niger State.
Speaking through tears, Regina lamented, “I’ve tried everything, but nothing is working. I feel like I’m losing my mind. Every day I wake up to one bad news or another about my brother. One moment they say he’s being released, the next, it’s something else. I’m tired. I’ll go back if that’s what it takes.”
In another post, she expressed anger toward the authorities and accused the police of bias. “Fighting for his baby sister because her in-laws used to beat her up — that’s his only crime. I respected the police, but shame on you all. The highest bidder always wins. Maybe I should return to Ned, do whatever he wants, get drugged and treated like a puppet — maybe then my brother will be free,” she wrote.
Regina ended her message with a chilling statement: “By law, there’s no valid case against Sammy. Ned Nwoko is bigger than the system — that’s the reality. I’ve lost.”
