Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels, has announced the purchase of a new mansion in Lagos amid continuing reports of marital crisis with her husband, businessman and politician, Senator Ned Nwoko.
Sharing photos of the property on Instagram on Sunday, the actress wrote: “I’m a queen in my house 👸! I needed a roof over my head so I bought this for me and my family 🫶😍.”
The post comes a few days after a viral video showed Regina crying, alleging that she had suffered violence in her marriage.
In the video, she said: “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.”
Responding to the viral clip, Nwoko denied allegations of domestic violence and attributed her marital problems to the actress’ alleged struggle with drug and alcohol abuse.
In a released statement, the senator claimed that Regina’s substance use had damaged their marriage, alleging that she had recently become violent, attacking three members of her staff and damaging property in two days.
He explained that he had advised him to continue his rehabilitation in Asokoro or abroad where he would have limited access to medication, expressing concern for his well-being.
Nwoko further alleged that Regina refused to take her son, Moon, to the hospital during a medical emergency and instead confronted a resident nurse who exposed his alleged drug use.
He also accused two individuals, identified as Sammy and Ann, of supplying drugs to the actress and causing chaos at her home during her absence.
He said: “Regina wasn’t always like this. Her current battle with drug and alcohol abuse is the root of our problem. She must continue with her rehabilitation program, or I fear for her life and safety. She has now moved to a place where she will have unrestricted access to drugs. “I have other wives and none will ever accuse me of violence.
“Regina is the violent one here, she slapped and hit three staff members in the last 48 hours and destroyed property including cars and windows without any just cause. The truth is that I have put a clear condition on her to accept rehabilitation in Asokoro or outside Nigeria especially in Jordan where she will not have access to drugs.
“A lucid Regina would have taken Moon to the hospital, but instead she even threatened to kill our live-in nurse (for exposing her drug abuse). While taking Moon to the hospital, a scene of chaos unfolded at home, orchestrated by Sammy, Regina’s main drug supplier. Another known drug supplier to Regina is the evil little demon named Ann.”
