Ned Nwoko Releases Video Alleging Regina Daniels’ Brother Repeatedly Stormed His Home and Threatened Family

Nigerian politician Ned Nwoko has publicly accused his wife Regina Daniels’ brother, Sammy Daniels, of repeatedly intruding into his home and causing chaos, releasing a video he says shows the alleged incidents. Nwoko claims Sammy harassed his children and domestic staff, often when he was not present. In a detailed statement, Nwoko outlined the extensive support he has provided to Regina’s family over the years. He said he sponsored Sammy through the final two years of his university education at the University of Ekpoma, bought him musical instruments, rented and furnished an apartment for him in Abuja, and purchased a house in Asaba for Regina’s use before their marriage. He also revealed that he regularly gave financial support to Regina’s mother, Rita Daniels, and transferred ₦125 million to Regina in the past two years alone. Nwoko explained that Regina entered rehabilitation after he noticed troubling changes in her behavior, linked to substance dependence, including staying awake for long periods and irregular eating. Doctors overseeing her therapy had instructed that certain people, particularly those enabling her drug use, be restricted from visiting. Nwoko alleged that Sammy, his girlfriend NK, and others, including Regina’s friends Destiny and Sonia Uche Montana, repeatedly defied these rules. They allegedly forced their way into the house, brought Regina the substances she was being treated for, and interfered with her recovery. He further claimed that Sammy and his associates verbally intimidated police officers stationed at the residence to enforce access restrictions, creating a hostile and unsafe environment for both staff and security personnel. Nwoko recounted a specific incident when he woke up around 4 a.m. to find Regina in his room while under the influence. She told him Sammy’s girlfriend was present, despite being banned from the house. After instructing security to remove the woman, Sammy reportedly returned shouting and demanding a confrontation, forcing security to eject him from the compound. The politician added that whenever Regina wanted to leave the house without his supervision, she would become aggressive toward domestic staff and security personnel, shouting, threatening, and insisting on going out despite medical restrictions aimed at protecting her recovery. Nwoko stressed that he neither drinks nor smokes and described the behavior of Sammy and his associates as unacceptable and damaging. He said the video he released serves as evidence of the harassment and disruption his family endured, emphasizing that his priority is Regina’s safety and successful rehabilitation. These videos show Sammy, Regina’s brother, repeatedly coming to my home and harassing my children and domestic staff, especially whenever I was not around. His visits were often aggressive and disruptive. This is someone I sponsored through his last two years at the University… pic.twitter.com/viM5dXaUiO — Senator (Dr.) Prince Ned Nwoko (@Prince_NedNwoko) November 8, 2025

FCT Police Explain Sammy West’s Arrest

The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has provided clarification on the arrest and arraignment of Samuel Ojeogwu, popularly known as Sammy West, the younger brother of Nollywood actress Regina Daniels. SP Josephine Adeh, the spokesperson for the command, stated that on October 28, 2025, police received a petition accusing Samuel and three others of criminal conspiracy, trespass, assault, criminal intimidation, theft, and cyber-bullying. The Metro Area Command reportedly sent several invitations for Samuel to appear for questioning, but he did not respond. “Following the ignored invitations, Samuel Ojeogwu was arrested in Lagos under a valid court-issued warrant and transferred to Abuja for further investigation,” SP Adeh explained. Investigations concluded with his arraignment on November 6, 2025, and the court remanded him at Keffi Prison pending fulfillment of bail conditions. Family members have alleged that Samuel was denied access to legal counsel and kept incommunicado, suggesting that his detention may be linked to ongoing disputes between Daniels and her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko. Daniels had earlier expressed concern over her brother’s safety, while her siblings accused Nwoko of using his influence to facilitate the arrest. Amid the legal proceedings, Daniels hinted at a possible reconciliation with Nwoko, suggesting it could be the only way to secure her brother’s release. In a video posted on Friday, she voiced frustration with the police and the length of Samuel’s detention, saying: “I give up! What was my brother’s offence? Fighting for his baby sister because his in-law would always beat her up? I actually accorded the Nigerian police some respect, but shame on you all. It’s obvious the highest bidder always wins. Now I’m crippled! I will return if that’s the only way — do whatever he says, get injected to be like a zombie, get locked up and raped in the house. Only then will my brother return. By law, there is no tangible case against Sammy West! Ned Nwoko is bigger than the whole of Nigeria — that’s what this means. We lost — or rather, I lost!” The FCT Police Command emphasized its commitment to due process and professional conduct as the case continues through the courts, even as tensions between the families remain high.

Sowore Demands Release of Regina Daniels’ Brother Following Arrest

Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore has condemned the arrest and detention of Samuel Ojeogwu, popularly known as Sammy West, the younger brother of actress Regina Daniels. Sammy West was reportedly arrested in Lagos on November 4 by security operatives allegedly linked to Senator Ned Nwoko. He was later transferred to Abuja and arraigned before a Dutse Magistrate Court on November 6 without legal representation. The court subsequently ordered his detention at Keffi Prison in Nasarawa State until November 28. Family members allege that Sammy was denied access to a lawyer and kept incommunicado, claiming the arrest is connected to an ongoing personal dispute between Nwoko and Daniels. Regina Daniels had previously expressed concern over her brother’s whereabouts, while her siblings, Lawrence and Sweezzy, accused Nwoko of using his political influence to orchestrate the detention. Sowore described the incident as an abuse of power and called for Sammy’s immediate release. In a Facebook post, he wrote: “I have been informed that Senator Ned Nwoko, in collusion with the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has unjustly imprisoned Samuel Ojeogwu, aka Sammy West, the younger brother of Nwoko’s now-estranged wife, Regina Daniels. “It is deeply troubling that this unholy alliance of impunity between Senator Nwoko, certain police officials, and some compliant magistrates continues unchecked. I call on the authorities to end this injustice immediately and release Sammy West by withdrawing the fabricated charges against him.”

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.” Regina Daniels intends to go back to Pa Ned…to continue the marriage that she s already tired of or to do What? pic.twitter.com/HkREvxbysl — Chidi ❤️ (@realchidi24) November 7, 2025

Sammy West, Regina Daniels’ Brother, Remanded In Keffi Prison Amid Family Outrage

Sammy West, brother of Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, has been remanded in Keffi Prison after his first court appearance since his arrest. His elder brother, Lawrence Daniels, shared the update online, expressing outrage at the way the case is being handled. “Dutse Magistrate has suddenly disappeared. Ned, you can pay everybody, but you can’t pay for integrity! Sammy is in prison. Everyone, please ask Ned what Sammy’s offense is. My lawyers are on the way, but I wasn’t allowed to call anyone. The judge ordered he be remanded until bail could be filed, but the magistrate disappeared, and no one was available to sign. You still want him to test the prison? Ned, the most powerful man in the universe, you still can’t outdo integrity,” Lawrence wrote. Reports indicate Sammy was transferred from Lagos to Abuja on November 3, 2025. His family says they have been denied access and remain unaware of the charges against him. Actress Mercy Johnson criticized the handling of the arrest, writing: “The worst form of injustice is pretended justice. A child was arrested, no one could see him for two days, he was flown from Lagos to Abuja, and allegedly taken straight to court from the airport.” The exact offense for which Sammy is being held has not yet been disclosed.
