Court Orders Regina Daniels to Undergo Drug Rehabilitation Before Seeing Her Children as Ned Nwoko Responds
Senator Ned Nwoko has reacted to allegations by his estranged wife, actress Regina Daniels, that he has deliberately blocked her from having access to their two children, Munir and Khalifa.
Earlier on Tuesday, Regina Daniels took to social media to accuse the senator of preventing her from seeing or communicating with the children amid their ongoing marital crisis. She claimed she had not spoken to them since mid-November, shortly after leaving the marriage. In her statement, Regina also alleged domestic violence and accused Nwoko of using various strategies to keep the children away from her. She further criticised him for sharing photos and videos of the children online, suggesting it was done to provoke her.
In response, Senator Nwoko, through a statement issued by his media aide and shared on his official social media platforms, dismissed the allegations. He insisted that he has not stopped Regina from seeing their children and clarified that the matter is subject to a court ruling.
According to the statement, a court has ordered that Regina Daniels must first undergo drug rehabilitation and be evaluated by the Abuja Social Welfare Department before she can be granted access to Munir, aged five, and Khalifa. Nwoko maintained that his actions are guided strictly by the court’s directive and the welfare of the children.
Addressing Regina’s criticism over his social media posts, the senator argued that she had previously shared photos and videos of the children herself while they were together, questioning why such posts have now become an issue.
Nwoko’s response adds a legal dimension to the public dispute, as both parties continue to trade accusations over custody, access, and conduct, with the court’s decision now central to how the situation unfolds.
