The rift between Nollywood actress Regina Daniels and her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, has taken a fiery new turn as Regina’s mother, Rita Daniels, publicly lashed out at the lawmaker, accusing him of betrayal, ingratitude, and tarnishing their family’s image despite their past support for his political ambitions.

In a video that has since gone viral, Rita Daniels did not hold back her anger, claiming that her daughter, Regina, donated a staggering $50,000 to support Nwoko’s election campaign. She further alleged that she, too, had invested her own resources and efforts to ensure his political success, only to be repaid with humiliation.
“You wanted someone with a high star to boost your fallen star,” Rita fumed. “If you think you can bite the finger that fed you, you’ll go down. Regina gave you $50k to support your election. We were covering up your shame and making you feel like an Odogwu. You’re mad.”
Her comments have set social media ablaze, intensifying the ongoing tension between the actress and her estranged husband, who has been at the center of public controversy in recent weeks.
The outburst followed fresh claims from Regina Daniels herself, who alleged that Senator Nwoko ordered the arrest of her siblings in an attempt to compel her to return to him and undergo what she described as rehabilitation.
In a heartfelt message shared online, the 24-year-old actress expressed deep frustration over the alleged harassment, questioning why a separation between two adults had to turn into a cycle of hostility and control.
“I kept quiet while being publicly called a drug addict,” she lamented. “But now, I can’t keep hiding my pain. I’m tired. I just want peace.”
The dramatic family feud continues to dominate public discourse, with many Nigerians divided over the unfolding saga that has now drawn in not only the estranged couple but also Regina’s family.
As emotions run high, the once-celebrated union that captivated fans across the country appears to have crumbled beyond repair, and with each revelation, the cracks in their relationship only grow deeper.
