Nigeria: Why Regina Daniels' Friend, Ann, Was Arrested

Senator Ned Nwoko cited defamatory social media posts and drug-related allegations against Regina Daniels’ friend, with investigations based on witness statements and evidence.

  • On Monday, Senator Ned Munir Nwoko clarified the reasons for Ms Izuegbu Anthonet's arrest in Lagos, dismissing Regina Daniels' account as 'false, reckless, and deliberately intended to distort the facts'.
  • Regina Daniels alleged Mr Nwoko physically assaulted her, escalating their dispute, which traces back to earlier exchanges publicly referenced since October.
  • Nwoko's team alleges Ann procured an illegal abortion for Regina and sourced controlled substances, making her 'swallow a bunch of weed' that caused bleeding, as stated in submissions to Maitama Police Station.
  • Investigators are treating the matter as a law-enforcement issue, with a formal witness statement submitted to the Area Commander, Maitama Police Station, and Nwoko's communications team urged the public to rely on verified facts.
  • The dispute has sparked viral coverage and public controversy over drugs, abortion, and violence allegations, while Regina Daniels, actress and filmmaker, has not responded to Nwoko’s counterclaims, leaving the record unresolved.
