Ned Nwoko Breaks Silence on Regina Daniels’ Health, Warns Bloggers Over Fake Reports

Senator Ned Nwoko has broken his silence on the health challenges facing his estranged wife and Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels, appealing to Nigerians to show compassion and stop spreading false reports about her condition.

Nwoko, who represents Delta North Senatorial District in the National Assembly, made the appeal in a statement shared on his social media platforms on Monday, November 2, 2026.

He urged Regina’s fans, friends, bloggers and social media commentators to give the actress privacy and sufficient space to recover from her health difficulties.

The senator said the actress had endured more than many people realised, insisting that she needed emotional support rather than public criticism and speculation.

“Regina has been through a lot, more than many people may realise, and right now, what she needs most is love, support and the opportunity to recover,” he said.

Nwoko added that a video Regina shared during her 25th birthday celebration in October offered the public a glimpse into some of the health challenges she had been experiencing.

According to him, the actress should not be subjected to further criticism or judgment at a time when she needs support to regain her health.

“As someone who knows what she has been through, I can tell you that this is not a time to judge, vilify or add to her burdens. It is a time to show compassion and allow her the opportunity to heal,” he stated.

The lawmaker also said his appeal was partly motivated by the welfare of their two children, Munir and Khalifa, who, according to him, deserved to see their mother supported and given every opportunity to recover.

He further expressed concern over the circulation of fabricated reports about Regina’s alleged death, misleading accounts of her health and other claims concerning her personal circumstances.

Nwoko warned bloggers and social media users against deliberately publishing false information about the actress, saying such reports had caused her considerable emotional distress.

He maintained that Regina was aware of many of the publications and that their circulation could further compound the difficulties she was experiencing.

The senator consequently threatened legal action against individuals responsible for spreading fabricated stories about her.

“We are documenting these publications, and anyone found responsible will be held accountable through the appropriate legal channels,” he warned.

He urged her supporters to discourage the circulation of unverified information rather than amplify it for online attention and engagement.

Regina’s health became a subject of widespread public discussion after she marked her 25th birthday on October 10, 2026, in a wheelchair.

The actress had disclosed that she had been battling severe pain and mobility difficulties for several months, explaining that what initially appeared to be a minor health problem had worsened and affected her ability to walk freely.

She also spoke about experiencing swollen and weakened legs, prompting concern among fans and colleagues in the entertainment industry.

However, she did not publicly disclose a definitive medical diagnosis explaining the condition.

Nwoko’s intervention comes against the background of the highly publicised marital dispute between the senator and the actress, which became prominent on social media in October 2025.

During the dispute, Regina accused Nwoko of domestic violence and controlling behaviour, allegations he denied.

The senator, in turn, accused the actress of substance abuse, a claim she disputed while making counter-allegations about their relationship.

Their disagreements generated widespread reactions, with both sides making claims about the circumstances surrounding the breakdown of their marriage.

Nwoko’s latest statement does not announce a reconciliation between the estranged couple. Rather, it focuses on Regina’s well-being, the welfare of their children and his objection to the circulation of false reports about the actress.

He called on the public to respect her privacy and allow her the opportunity to concentrate on her recovery.
