“My World Revolved Around Regina Daniels”: Ned Nwoko Opens Up How He Married Regina Honourably
Senator Ned Nwoko has addressed ongoing controversies surrounding his marriage to Nollywood actress Regina Daniels.
The politician highlighted that his decision to marry her was done honourably and in accordance with tradition.
In a press release, the Delta-born senator claimed the saga was a deliberate attempt by his political enemies to tarnish his image.
Ned Nwoko recently released a press statement alleging that a “syndicate of pull-down-Ned” group is taking advantage of the situation involving his wife, Regina Daniels, to tarnish his image.
Nwoko made this claim amid reports of ongoing marital challenges between him and the Nollywood actress.
The last part of the press release addresses why he married the movie star, how he doted on her, and how she has become a weak point through which his political and personal enemies are attacking him.
The concluding part of the press release says: “Our customs and traditions do not frown upon polygamy. What I did was to marry her honourably, give her a name, and treat her with dignity.”
Nwoko further revealed that beyond public perception and social media narratives, his relationship with Regina has been genuine and built on care and affection.
Our marriage has been public and transparent. Beyond the social media lifestyle, my world revolved around Regina. I pampered her and cared for her deeply, something that everyone who has worked with me across Delta, Abuja, and beyond can testify to.”
However, the senator lamented that Regina has become a target through which his adversaries have been attacking him and his political achievements.
“It is, therefore, disheartening to read all this filth being spread online. As the saying goes, when a wall cracks, the lizard finds its way in. Regina has become a weak point through which my political and personal enemies have been attacking me.”
Concluding the statement, Nwoko alleged that the ongoing campaign against him is part of a larger effort to undermine his political progress and development projects.
“My decision to marry her properly according to tradition is now being twisted into a tool for political blackmail. This is a witch-hunt that has been ongoing for years, an attempt to stop my developmental strides and tarnish me now that I am a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”

“If only Chinedu didn’t come out with all that drug-using stuff, this whole buhaha won’t have escalated like this😢. As an elder, after that video of domestic violence came out, all he needed to have done if he must clear his name is just for him to write it was a family matter and he will settle it within the family. After all there was nothing in that video that showed him beating his ex-wife.”
Daily Voice.ng earlier reported that Regina Daniels’ brother, Sweezy, made fresh allegations against Senator Ned Nwoko, claiming that he nearly beat their mother. Sweezy further accused Nwoko of treating his sick niece poorly by sending her away from his house at 3 am. He also accused the senator of physical aggression toward his staff, including Regina’s former personal assistant, Leya.

BREAKING: Ogun Loses An Icon, Dr Olusegun Osoba

Osoba, who hailed from Ijebu Ode in Ogun State, died peacefully at his residence in the early hours of Thursday, May 14, 2026.
The announcement was contained in a statement issued by The Yusufu Bala Usman Institute in Zaria, Kaduna State.

“He was 92 years old. Dr. Osoba was a rare scholar whose whole life was dedicated to teaching and research that was designed to educate his students, colleagues and the general public about the nature of the capitalist system and the structures of neo-colonialism that dominates the Nigerian state, and to propose ways of liberating the country from this odious system in order that its citizens may live their lives free from exploitation and oppression.
“His work in economic history was groundbreaking in many ways as he sought to expose the actual workings of the economic system that was holding back development in the country.
“His writings were wide ranging, from scholarly books and papers to articles and columns in newspapers that reached a wide audience. One of his major achievements was to author, together with his close comrade Yusufu Bala Usman, The Minority Report and Draft Constitution for the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1976.
“This document has had a profound impact on the various debates and discussions about the way forward for Nigeria.
“Segun is gone but he has left an enduring legacy and a shining example for patriotic Nigerians to emulate. Funeral arrangements will be as announced by the family.”

Nigerian Billionaire Abdulsamad Rabiu Battles South Africa’s Johann Rupert in Race for $20 Billion Fortune
Africa’s billionaire rankings are witnessing a fierce battle as Nigerian industrialist Abdulsamad Rabiu and South African luxury magnate Johann Rupert race toward the historic $20 billion net worth mark.
Rabiu, chairman of BUA Group, currently holds the advantage with an estimated fortune of $19.1 billion, placing him about $100 million ahead of Rupert in the latest billionaire rankings.
The Nigerian billionaire has emerged as Africa’s best-performing billionaire in 2026 after adding an estimated $8.96 billion to his fortune this year alone. His rapid rise has intensified conversations across the continent about who will become Africa’s second billionaire to officially cross the $20 billion threshold.
On the other hand, Rupert, the South African chairman of Richemont, has seen his wealth decline by roughly $506 million this year, largely due to fluctuations tied to the luxury company’s market performance.
Despite the recent decline, Rupert had earlier moved close to the $20 billion milestone before Rabiu widened the gap with his strong surge in wealth.
The rivalry between the two business titans is now being closely watched across Africa’s financial and investment circles, as both men remain among the continent’s most influential billionaires.
