Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels, has accused her estranged husband, Ned Nwoko, of using the police to arrest her siblings following the collapse of their marriage.
The actress took to Instagram to cry out that her elder brother and sister had been detained, and her younger sister might also be targeted.
According to her, Nwoko wanted her to return home and go back to what he called a rehabilitation centre.

She wrote, “Someone please help me! I feel like I’m losing my mind. My big brother and big sister have been arrested. My baby sister might be next unless I return and, according to him, go back to rehab.”
Regina accused Nwoko of abusing his influence, stating that he was using police officers to intimidate her family.
She said, “Imagine the Nigerian police beating up my brother like a criminal. Ned, you have power, connections, and money, right? Wild for you to think I have none.”
Expressing her anger, she warned him not to forget that she could ruin his reputation if pushed further.
She wrote, “What I wouldn’t want to do to you is let the man I once saw as an iroko fall before everyone because you bloody know your little girl Gina is capable of that.”
The actress expressed regret that their marriage, once filled with love, had become public drama.
She said, “It’s a big shame that the beautiful but short legacy we built is about to be ridiculed by the whole world. Must things go completely south if partners are no longer interested?”
Regina also expressed pain over how the crisis could affect her children, saying, “I just hate this feeling of wishing my boys’ father’s name remains a legacy. You know why? Boys don’t grow to change their surnames.”
Her brother, Sammy West, also lashed out at Nwoko for accusing their family of drug abuse.
He wrote, “Accusing my siblings of drugs? What killed your son in the UK? Died of heart failure and seizure due to excessive intake of drugs. Yet nobody heard anything. You’d better stop this nonsense because the media will hear more than they should.”
Their mother, veteran actress Rita Daniels, also joined in, slamming Nwoko over the arrest and accusing him of trying to ruin her daughter’s image.
In a viral video, she said, “You wanted someone with a high star to boost your fallen star. If you think you can bite the finger that fed you, you’ll go down.”
Rita dismissed claims that Regina married Nwoko for money, revealing that her daughter had supported his senatorial campaign with $50,000.
She added, “We are covering you up and making you feel like an Odogwu. You’re mad.”
