Senator Ned Nwoko has defended his estranged wife, Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, urging her fans, friends, bloggers and social media commentators to give her space to recover amid their lingering marital crisis.\n<\/p>\n

Nwoko made the appeal in a Monday statement shared on his social media page, expressing concern about the actress\u2019 well-being and the circulation of what he described as false reports about her health and personal life.\n<\/p>\n

He said the appeal was necessary not only for Daniels but also for their children, who, according to him, deserved to see their mother supported as she worked towards recovery.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to make a sincere appeal to the public, particularly Regina\u2019s fans, friends, bloggers and social media commentators, to please give Regina some breathing space.<\/p>\n

\u201cI make this appeal not just for her sake, but also for the sake of the kids, who are very well cared for and deserve to see their mother supported, loved and given every opportunity to get better,\u201d he said.\n<\/p>\n

Nwoko added that Daniels had been through difficulties that the public might not fully understand, urging people to show compassion rather than judge or criticise her.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cRegardless of the difficulties we have faced, her well-being has always mattered to me. It is, in fact, the very concern that brought much of our private situation into the public domain,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The senator also condemned the circulation of fabricated death announcements and other reports he said were distressing to the actress.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am particularly concerned about the circulation of false and disturbing reports about her, including fabricated death announcements, misleading stories and other hurtful content. These things are not harmless social media engagement,\u201d he said.\n<\/p>\n

He warned that those responsible for spreading false information about Daniels could face legal action.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me make this very clear: I will not tolerate the deliberate spread of false information about Regina, particularly fabricated reports about her death, health or personal circumstances,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Nwoko said the publications were being documented and that those found responsible would be held accountable through the appropriate legal channels.\n<\/p>\n

The statement comes amid the public marital crisis between the lawmaker, who represents Delta North Senatorial District, and Daniels, which erupted in October 2025.\n<\/p>\n

The couple, who married in 2019, have two sons together.<\/p>\n

Their dispute played out publicly on social media, with both parties making allegations and counter-allegations about their relationship.\n<\/p>\n

Daniels had previously accused Nwoko of abusive and controlling behaviour, allegations he denied.\n<\/p>\n

Nwoko, in turn, attributed their marital difficulties to alleged substance abuse by the actress, a claim Daniels disputed.\n<\/p>\n

On October 10, 2026, Daniels marked her birthday with a social media video in which she spoke about health challenges that had affected her mobility and contributed to her absence from social media.\n<\/p>\n

According to previous PUNCH Online reports, the actress described experiencing severe pain and difficulties walking after what initially appeared to be a minor health issue.\n<\/p>\n

She also expressed gratitude for improvements in her condition.\n<\/p>\n

Nwoko referred to the birthday video in his latest statement, saying it gave the public a glimpse of the challenges she had been experiencing.<\/p>\n

He urged the public to allow Daniels to recover without subjecting her to further criticism or distress.\n<\/p>\n

However, Nwoko did not explicitly announce a reconciliation between them in the statement.\n <\/p>\n
