"I Want Her Alive": Ned Nwoko Doubles Down on Rehab for Regina Daniels
Sona Reporter | Sona Headlines & Sona Solar Zimbabwe
Amidst a maelstrom of public accusations, Senator Ned Nwoko has reiterated his stance that his estranged wife, actress Regina Daniels, must undergo rehabilitation. Citing "alarming toxicology results," Nwoko insists his efforts are aimed at safeguarding her life and ensuring she is healthy enough to raise their two young children, a position he maintains is being sabotaged by her own family.

| Senator Nwoko insists his actions are to "safeguard" his wife for their children. |
This comes as a direct response to Daniels' explosive claims that Nwoko enabled her addiction and that their marriage was never legally binding, escalating a deeply personal conflict into a full-blown public war of narratives.
Nwoko's Primary Concern: Rehab
In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Senator Nwoko framed his insistence on rehabilitation as a matter of life and death. "I want her alive and healthy, not just for me, but for our children," he stated. He claims to have lived with the problem for eight months, alleging he had to rush her to Nizamiye Hospital unconscious from a drug overdose on three separate occasions. "Many people have died of drug overdose, and if anything happens to her now, what will I tell her children tomorrow?" he questioned.
Nwoko directly accuses Regina's siblings, particularly her brother Sammy, and her friends of undermining her recovery. "Her close relations and friends that I trusted around her are the ones exploiting her resources to supply her with drugs," he alleged. He described a painful cycle where any progress made in her rehabilitation would be undone when her "enablers" would "sneak in and bring her the same drugs she was being treated for." He branded those advising her against rehab as her "real enemy."
To back his claims, Nwoko presented what he said were toxicology reports showing high toxic levels of various drugs in her system. He has publicly challenged Regina and her mother, Rita Daniels, who are "living in denial," to prove him wrong. "Let them arrange for her to visit any toxicologist of their choice, I will pay," he offered, expressing his confidence in the medical evidence.
Daniels' Explosive Counter-Claims
Regina Daniels has fired back with her own damning allegations, claiming Nwoko was not a concerned husband but an enabler. "You say you want me to go for rehab, but you are the same Ned who always wanted me high because, in your words, I’m ‘sexier’ when I’m high," she wrote. This accusation directly contradicts his public stance and paints a picture of a partner who allegedly encouraged her addiction for his own benefit.
In what could be the most legally significant claim, Daniels asserts their union was never formalized. "I would have filed for divorce long ago if there was ever a legal marriage between us. We were never married in any court of law," she declared. This challenges the entire foundation of their public relationship and shifts the narrative from a marital dispute to a potentially more complex legal battle.
The "Evidence"
Both sides have turned to video to plead their case. The initial crisis was sparked by a viral video of a distraught Daniels alleging violence. Nwoko dismissed this as a "pure Nollywood scenario filmed in front of my house, in my absence." He then released his own videos allegedly showing Regina's brother, Sammy West, "repeatedly coming to my home and harassing my children and domestic staff." This war of digital evidence has left the public to decipher who is the victim and who is the perpetrator.
A System Under Scrutiny
At Sona Solar Zimbabwe, we build systems designed for stability and longevity. The Nwoko-Daniels saga is a public spectacle of a system in total collapse. When trust shorts out, the entire grid fails, leaving only sparks of accusation and the darkness of doubt. Nwoko's insistence on "safeguarding" his wife for his children, contrasted with her claims of being controlled and enabled, highlights a fundamental breakdown in the relationship's 'power supply'. This is a system running on volatile, unpredictable energy. It serves as a powerful reminder that true, sustainable power—whether in a home or a relationship—isn't about control or forced connections. It's about providing a reliable, steady, and healthy source of light that empowers everyone connected to it, rather than plunging them into a public blackout.
