Senator Ned Nwoko has broken his silence on the viral video showing his wife, Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, in distress, attributing their marital tension to what he described as her “battle with drugs and alcohol abuse.”

The lawmaker’s reaction followed the circulation of a video in which Regina Daniels appeared tearful and agitated, lamenting alleged violence in her marriage. In the clip, she was heard saying, “In Ned Nwoko’s house I am nothing, but in my own house I am a queen. Not again, I can’t stand the violence, it’s too much.”
The footage sparked a wave of public concern and sympathy online, with Regina’s brother posting an emotional message on Instagram vowing to protect her.
Responding via his official X (formerly Twitter) account, Senator Nwoko denied all allegations of domestic violence, insisting that his wife’s recent behaviour stemmed from substance dependence.
REGINA’S UNPROVOKED CARNAGE AND RAMPAGE IN MY HOUSE AND IN MY ABSENCE

“Regina was not always like this. Her current battle with drugs and alcohol abuse is the root of our problem. She must continue her rehabilitation program, or I fear for her life and safety,” Nwoko wrote.
According to the senator, his efforts to help the actress receive professional treatment have been met with resistance.
“The truth is, I have set a clear condition for her to accept rehab in Asokoro or outside Nigeria, especially Jordan, where she will not have access to drugs,” he said.
He further alleged that Regina had recently exhibited violent behaviour at home, claiming she assaulted three domestic staff members and caused property damage.
“She is the violent one here, slapping and hitting staff in the past 48 hours and destroying cars and windows for no just cause,” Nwoko alleged.
The senator also accused certain individuals of enabling the alleged problem, naming two supposed suppliers.
“A scene of chaos unfolded at home, orchestrated by Sammy, Regina’s main drug supplier. Another known supplier of drugs to Regina is the tiny evil devil called Ann,” he claimed.
Nwoko maintained that he had never been violent towards any of his wives, urging Regina to continue her rehabilitation and seek proper help.
“I have other wives, and none will ever accuse me of violence,” he added.
