Emaka Rollas, the National President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), has spoken up on the Regina Daniels and Ned Nwoko saga.
He stated that some Nollywood veterans are aware of Regina Daniels’ alleged substance abuse.
The AGN President made this known in a statement released on his Instagram page to address what he referred to as “many allegations, misconceptions, and unnecessary accusations”.
Rollas who revealed that Senator Ned Nwoko is the AGN’s Chairman, Board of Patrons, while actress Regina Daniels and her mother, Rita Daniels are members, stated that many have been tagging him to respond to the ongoing crisis between them.
While explaining stating that “I owe it to myself, to the Guild and to the public to speak the truth clearly and responsibly”, Rollas named Jide Kosoko, Sanni Danji, Okey Bakassi, Charles Inojie and Chinyere Wilfred among those who have witnessed Regina Daniels allegedly abusing substances at movie locations.
Questioning their silence, Emaka Rollas said they all knew that Regina needed help.

“For years, the Board of Trustees has allowed me to stand at the frontline of battles, while they protect their reputations from behind. Many senior colleagues know the truth surrounding recent events, yet they have remained silent.
“I am calling on those who were present at the last series shoot and fully aware of what is happening. Okey Bakassi, Charles Inojie, Chinyere Wilfred, Jide Kosoko, and Sanni Danji. You were all on set during the last production in question. You saw things firsthand, regarding Regina and we all know she needs help. Your silence is unfair, and it leaves me exposed to attacks for matters I did not create.
“While we were planning our roundtable meeting in South Africa, Senator Nwoko called me and gave me a condition that he would only allow Regina to travel if I promised she wouldn’t travel through Lagos. This is a fact, and I state it because it has been twisted against me repeatedly”.
