Senator representing Delta North, Ned Nwoko, has released a statement affirming the authenticity of circulating medical reports concerning his wife, actress Regina Daniels, which allege substance abuse.
The statement, posted on the Senator’s Instagram page on Saturday and signed by his Communications Team lead, addressed the controversy after one of the implicated hospitals reportedly denied issuing the document.
The viral report, signed by the hospital’s Managing Director and Head of Clinical Services, Adekunle Adesina, purportedly stated that Daniels was diagnosed with a substance use disorder and placed on a home-based detox programme starting September 24, 2025.
Nwoko’s Statement on the Reports
Nwoko’s statement clarified that the medical reports are “genuine” and explained the position of the hospital:
“A medical report concerning Regina Nwoko has been circulating online. The reports are genuine. The rehabilitation centre only clarified that it did not publish or circulate the documents, which is expected because medical institutions must protect client confidentiality. They did not deny authoring the reports; their concern is the leak itself.”
The post urged the public to read the full reports, which, according to the Senator’s team, clearly explain the situation.
“Both the toxicology report and the Serenity Hospital report confirm the presence of the same substances, all at levels that pose serious health risks: Marijuana, Cocaine, Morphine, Opiates at extremely elevated levels, Alcohol at a critically dangerous level.”
The statement also referenced a report from Nizamiya Hospital, saying:
“The Nizamiya Hospital report dated 3rd October adds an even more troubling detail. She was brought into the hospital unconscious from a drug overdose. These facts are documented, consistent, and deeply alarming.”
Challenges in Rehabilitation
The statement described challenges faced by the rehabilitation centre, including alleged interference from Daniels’ siblings:
“They openly stated that they do not see anything wrong in giving her alcohol and weed, even while she was undergoing rehabilitation, and they have continued enabling her substance use. Their actions made effective treatment impossible and remain one of the major reasons she has not been able to complete rehabilitation.”
The post suggested that Daniels’ current online behaviour reflects these struggles and explained why Nwoko insists on therapy:
“Several of Regina’s recent decisions are not coming from a stable and healthy frame of mind. She is vulnerable, unprotected, and exposed to individuals who exploit her for personal gain. Her online behaviour reflects her current struggles, and she tends to listen more to public voices than to medical professionals or her husband.”
Call for Support and Treatment
The statement emphasized that private attempts to help Daniels were unsuccessful and highlighted the seriousness of the situation:
“At this point, the question becomes: must we wait until Regina reaches a point of irreversible harm before we support her, encourage her to stop substance abuse, and help her commit to rehabilitation? Distinguished Senator is genuinely and deeply concerned. His tone, his actions, and his persistence all reflect a man who wants Regina to recover, to be safe, to be clear-minded, and to be present for her two young sons. Until those boys are old enough to guide her themselves, he will continue doing everything within his responsibility to help restore her well-being and ensure that future choices are made with clarity. The reports are authentic. The hospitals and rehabilitation centres did not leak them. The findings speak for themselves. Regina needs consistent treatment, support, and protection. Not denial, not interference, and not enabling. She is a mother, and she deserves the chance to regain her health and stability.”
Daniels’ Response
Daniels had previously responded to Nwoko’s claims, admitting to past drug use but insisting that her substance use was not the root of their marital issues. She dismissed her estranged husband’s allegations as exaggerated, manipulative, and designed to tarnish her image.
