Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has further opened up about her troubled marriage with billionaire politician and businessman Ned Nwoko, making shocking allegations of manipulation, rape, and drug use.
The 23-year-old actress in a lengthy statement released late Saturday night via Instagram, finally admitted to having taken drugs but claimed it was Ned Nwoko who encouraged and even preferred her that way. According to her, the politician found her “sexier” and “more romantic” when she was under the influence.
Regina, who described her former partner as a “narcissistic manipulative bastard,” accused him of attempting to control every aspect of her life, including isolating her from her family and friends. She claimed that Ned Nwoko used the “drug” narrative to publicly discredit her and to justify his alleged abusive behavior.
In her fiery message, Regina also alleged that Nwoko had a pattern of introducing his wives to drugs, boldly claiming that “all his wives and ex-wives are on drugs.”

The actress further alleged that she was at times locked up, declared mentally unstable, and injected with medication meant for people with bipolar disorder whenever she attempted to leave the relationship.
Regina wrote: “Ned, how could you lie so openly and without even small remorse? You know my family has absolutely nothing to do with this. You have always tried to cut them off because of the bond we share, and now you are trying to make them look bad for no reason.
“Fine, I did drugs. So what? Is that even the issue between us? The moment we had a fight, you rushed to the public shouting “drugs, drugs, drugs,” because you knew it would make a perfect story for the media, something dramatic enough to distract everyone from the real issue!
“You want to find a reason to arrest everyone around me so that I will have no one left beside me, no friend, no support, no safe place to turn to. Then, when I’m completely isolated and broken, I will be forced to come back to you because I will have nowhere else to go.
“That has always been your strategy, break people down, make them weak and powerless, and then have your way with them. But guess what? It’s not going to work this time. Not anymore!
“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. You liked me that way because it made me wild and romantic exactly how you wanted me to be.
“Why don’t you also tell them how you force yourself on me whenever I say no?
“Why don’t you tell them how you lock me up, seize my phones, and suddenly declare me “mentally unstable” the moment I say I no longer want to be in this relationship. But once I change my mind just to get out of that locked room, suddenly I’m fine again, I’m no longer mentally unstable, and apparently not in need of rehab anymore.
“Why don’t you also tell them that all your wives and ex wives are on drugs? And can you be kind enough to explain to them why that is?
“Why don’t you also tell them how you lock me up and Doctors to inject me with drugs meant for people with bipolar disorder?
“Why don’t you tell them how you take my phones for weeks just because you hate that I talk to my family a lot.
“You have never seen me act incoherent, stumble, or lose control, so just stop. Every problem we have had started when I no longer wanted you, whether sober or even high. Stop using the “drugs” narrative to create distraction. Tell people the truth. I understand shaa. You are feeling rejected and hurt, and you are struggling to make peace with the fact that it’s all over.
“Let me make this very clear, No matter how much you think you spent on me, it can never equal the value of the time I gave you, my prime years, my energy, and the career opportunities I sacrificed while being with you
“And for the record, 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, and no documents were signed. Leave me alone, Ned. Marriage is not by force. Love is not by force. Stop trying to control what no longer belongs to you!”
The actress concluded her statement on her Instagram Story with a vow to fight back through legal means, adding that she would reclaim her reputation, which she said has been tainted by the “drug” scandal.
“Yes Everyone! It is now in history that “REGINA DANIELS” did drugs because that was what her husband wanted believe it or not. Dearest ex husband thanks for breaking the crown you put on my head.
:No one knew us like us and I trusted you with all of me even with my sextape which I pray never sees the light. but you have always been a step ahead negatively. Foolish me! When I married you at 17, was I on drugs? I thank God for time.
“My name is ruined for now but I will rewrite my story! That narrative will be dead and gone Now that I have let the one thing you have on me out, what else? It’s time to fight with all of me in court! I’m not backing down now you narcissistic manipulative bastard! I’m so pained! I am ruined !! y’all can laugh but the laughter won’t be for long as long as I serve my God,” Regina concluded.
