Actress Regina Daniels is stirring controversy in her marital saga with Ned Nwoko, saying that they were never married and that there was no legal support for their union.
In a statement on Instagram in the early hours of Sunday, the actress admitted that she was on drugs but that the cause of their discord was his alleged constant plan to isolate her from her loved ones.
“Fine, I did drugs. So what? Is that even the issue between us? The moment we had a fight, you rushed to the public shouting ‘drugs, drugs, drugs,’ because you knew it would make a perfect story for the media, something dramatic enough to distract everyone from the real issue!
“You want to find a reason to arrest everyone around me so that I will have no one left beside me, no friend, no support, no safe place to turn to. Then when I’m completely isolated and broken, I will be forced to come back to you because I will have nowhere else to go,” she wrote.
According to her, the lawmaker seized her phones for weeks so she would not communicate with her family.

She added that she was also isolated in a room and declared mentally unstable whenever she wanted out of the union.
“Every problem we have had started when I no longer wanted you, whether sober or even high. Tell people the truth,” she added.
Finally, Regina asserted there was no legal marriage between them and said her time with Nwoko cost her prime years and career opportunities:
“No matter how much you think you spent on me, it can never equal the value of the time I gave you, my prime years, my energy, and the career opportunities I sacrificed while being with you.
“And for the record, I would have filed for divorce long ago if there had ever been a legal marriage between us. We were never married in any court of law… Leave me alone, Ned. Marriage is not by force. Love is not by force,” she said.
