Popular Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has refuted claims that she married the senator representing Delta North, Ned Nwoko, for financial gains.
Speaking in a video posted on Instagram on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, Regina said she did not marry Nwoko out of greed.
The actress also urged Nigerians to stop insulting her mother amid her ongoing marital crisis with the senator, adding that her family advised her against the union.
She said: “You all stop saying I got married out of greed. Excuse me. No. We were not broke. Does that make sense? And secondly, what do you guys think? What money can a man give to a mother to get her child, who practically provides everything in the house? That is, practically, she trained all her children through this child.”

Speaking on the alleged abuse against her mother, Regina said: “The main essence of this video is to please, stop insulting my mum. For some reason, I feel like I owe you all this explanation because I don’t know why everyone is in pain about my life. But I don’t feel like you all are pained from a bad side. You’re in pain because you used your N200 or N500 to buy my CD. I watched my movie as a child, and you all watched me. Like, fine. And it’s okay. I’m in the limelight, so it’s fine. You all have a say, so it’s OK. And that’s why I’m explaining. So please, stop insulting my mom.
“She’s the best thing that ever happened to me. She is my god on earth. She’s been strong for seven years. My mum held it down. She tried. You all insulted her. But she tried. It’s me. I’m the one with the coconut head. I’m so ashamed to say I fell in love. But I actually really did. And it’s wild. But I did. Everyone said no.”
