Mixed reactions have trailed the public statement made by Senator Ned Nwoko, alleging that his wife, popular actress Regina Daniels, is battling drug and alcohol addiction.

This comes after a disturbing video surfaced online on Saturday showing Regina in distress, reportedly accusing her husband of domestic violence.

In response, the Delta North senator released a statement via his social media handles, claiming that Regina’s behavior was influenced by substance abuse.

According to Nwoko, the actress “needs urgent rehabilitation or else I fear for her life,” alleging that she had relocated to a place where she could freely access drugs.

He also mentioned two alleged suppliers — one Sammy, said to be Regina’s brother, and another individual he described as a “tiny evil devil called Ann.”

The revelation has since sparked intense debate among Nigerians online, with opinions sharply divided.

Some users expressed support for Nwoko, citing rumors about Regina’s past lifestyle, while others condemned the senator for making such personal accusations public.

Here are a few social media reactions compiled by DAILY POST:

@L_victor014: “Ned Nwoko has shown how daft he is, trying to blackmail Regina Daniels and her brother. If she truly didn’t have an edge over him, he wouldn’t have done this.”

@okaforu22: “My sister-in-law, who’s an actress in Asaba, told us Regina used to sneak into the bush to do drugs during shoots before she got married. So I’m not surprised.”

@TaraBlinkz: “Daniels’ alleged drug use all along, yet stayed quiet until her actions became a problem? Waiting for a fight to address drug abuse is a failure in marriage.”

@HiikyaaTor: “Ned Nwoko coming out publicly to accuse Regina of drug and alcohol abuse is a big low! You don’t disgrace a woman you claim to love just to gain sympathy.”

The controversy continues to stir conversations across social media, with both parties yet to make further comments beyond their initial statements.
