Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has again accused her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, of years of abuse, manipulation, and an attempt to destroy her public image.
In a lengthy Instagram story posted on Monday morning, the 24-year-old actress alleged that the Delta North senator has been trying to “ruin” her both publicly and privately in a bid to gain custody of their children and control the narrative around their troubled marriage.
“Ned, can you actually leave me alone? Why are you trying so hard to ruin me publicly and privately, because you know, in my part of the world, a good reputation equals money,” she wrote. “Don’t forget the media loves entertainment and I am an entertainer — but I’m tiredddd!! You trapped my life since I was 17, so this is me fighting for my freedom.”
Regina claimed that her husband introduced her to the drug ecstasy (Molly) early in their marriage to “satisfy” his sexual preferences.
“You introduced me to the drugs, ecstasy (Molly), just to be able to satisfy you, and that’s the only drug I know of which reduced the rape because it made our sexual life wild,” she alleged. “That’s how you love your women, wild and erotic — while you took Viagra, hence your frequent blood pressure spike. Remember, I have rushed you to the hospital countless times for the same reason.”
Regina further accused Nwoko of orchestrating a “fake drug report” in an effort to discredit her and gain custody of their children, calling the move “insane and demeaning.”
“Coming with a fake drug report just because you want to take custody of my kids is insane and demeaning of your personality,” she said.
She also accused the politician of forming “a camp” against her and using his influence to label her a drug addict in the media.
“As old as you are, you are forming a camp against 24-year-old me. You have been calling me a drug head, then leave me alone! Saying I need rehab is just your way of trying to discredit me in getting my kids,” she wrote. “You thought I would blackmail you with what I know, but I’m still giving you the last respect as the father of my kids.”
The actress, who married Nwoko in 2019, claimed she endured years of emotional control and threats. She warned that she could expose alleged “murder cases, land grabbing, and fraud” if the senator continued to target her.
“If you don’t leave me alone, I’m going to dig, spill everything, whether murder case, land grabbing, fraud, etc. As the father of my kids, I know health-wise you are not sound, and I don’t want to send you to your early grave, respect yourself,” she wrote.
Regina also accused Nwoko of repeatedly trying to shut down her Instagram account, which she described as her only platform for self-expression.
“Why exactly are you trying to take my Instagram down? You always wanted it down if it wasn’t promoting you. That’s why you made me deactivate my Instagram the last time,” she wrote. “Thank God for this, my coconut head sha.”
In the outburst, she reflected on years of public criticism over her marriage to the much older senator, saying she endured it to preserve her family.
“People insulted us for years, and I held us down. At least put some respect on the 1%. I was a good wife and mother, since you badly want to paint my remaining 99% as bad. I can’t wait to put this behind me, God,” she added.
Regina urged Nwoko to move on and marry another wife.
“Just marry a new wife and leave me alone — isn’t that what you said you would do? Use that one [to] console yourself,” she said. “People of Delta North, your senator has left his responsibilities and focused on small me.”
The post marks the latest escalation in the high-profile marital crisis between the actress and the lawmaker, following earlier allegations involving drug use, manipulation, and counter-claims of defamation from both sides.
