Regina Daniels Breaks Down In Tears, Says ‘I Will Go Back’
THECONSCIENCE NG reports that Nollywood actress and filmmaker Regina Daniels has broken down in tears while speaking about the crisis in her marriage to Senator Ned Nwoko, saying she feels emotionally exhausted and may consider returning to him.
The actress made the revelation in a video shared on Friday amid rising tension surrounding her relationship with the Delta North senator.
The drama took a new turn after Regina alleged that her brother, Samuel “Sammy West” Daniels, was arrested and detained for several days on the orders of her husband.
In a lengthy post on her social media page, the 25-year-old actress revealed that her estranged parents had reunited to support her and work towards her brother’s release.
“Two concluded sworn enemies reuniting with no negative ulterior motive other than their daughter’s happiness,” she wrote.
Regina, who rose to fame as a teenage actress in Miracle Child, expressed frustration over Sammy’s prolonged detention, vowing to personally intervene if necessary.
“Sammy’s detainment is taking way too long, but we will get him out even if I have to march there myself and create a storm! Since they want me!” she said.
In another video shared on Instagram, fellow actress Mercy Johnson-Okojie was seen searching for Sammy, appearing visibly worried as she said, “He’s not here,” before walking away.
Fighting back tears, Regina expressed confusion and pain, hinting that she might return to her husband.
“What am I even begging for? I don’t know. Every time I wake up, I hear one thing that my brother is about to be released then another story comes up. I’ve tried. I have to go. I will go back,” she lamented.
Her emotional outburst comes weeks after a viral video showed her crying and alleging domestic violence in her marriage.
“In Ned Nwoko’s house, I am nothing. But in my house, I am a queen. Not again. I can’t stand the violence; it’s too much,” she said in the clip.
Senator Nwoko has since denied the allegations, claiming that his wife’s emotional behavior was caused by “drug and alcohol abuse” and that she needed rehabilitation.
In another post earlier this week, Regina pleaded with Nigerians to stop attacking her mother, Rita Daniels, describing her as “my pillar and protector.” She also vowed to fight for her children, Munir and Khalifa, with or without her husband’s support.
“I’ll take them, train them, and raise them with or without your support,” she stated.
The actress further revealed that her family never approved of her marriage to the 64-year-old lawmaker — a union that has continued to stir public debate.
Meanwhile, the unfolding drama has drawn widespread reactions, including from veteran musician and activist Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy.
In a video posted on his Instagram page, the 75-year-old entertainer urged Regina and Nwoko to resolve their issues privately, describing their public exchanges as “unnecessary and shameful.”
“The internet has become where people now gather and talk rubbish. You guys should keep your underwear and smelly boxers inside your house. Wash them there, not online,” he said.
Charly Boy, who has been married for over four decades, reminded the couple that marriage requires patience and maturity.
“I’ve been married for over 45 years to one woman. It’s not easy, but wisdom is key. Ned Nwoko should know better clout is not a cure for chaos,” he added.
As of the time of filing this report, Senator Ned Nwoko has yet to respond to the new videos or Charly Boy’s remarks.
