Delta North Senator, Ned Nwoko says his life revolved around actress Regina Daniels, his wife, before their marriage hit the rocks.

Nwoko made the revelation amid claims that a “syndicate of pull-down-Ned” group is taking advantage of the situation involving his wife, Regina Daniels, to tarnish his image.

In a press statement on Monday, November 10, he claims he has been blackmailed by political enemies

The last part of the press release addresses why he married the movie star, how he doted on her, and how she has become a weak point through which his political and personal enemies are attacking him.

The concluding part of the press release says: ‎“Our customs and traditions do not frown upon polygamy. What I did was to marry her honourably, give her a name, and treat her with dignity.”

Nwoko further revealed that beyond public perception and social media narratives, his relationship with Regina has been genuine and built on care and affection. ‎“Our marriage has been public and transparent. Beyond the social media lifestyle, my world revolved around Regina.

I pampered her and cared for her deeply, something that everyone who has worked with me across Delta, Abuja, and beyond can testify to.” However, the senator lamented that Regina has become a target through which his adversaries have been attacking him and his political achievements. ‎“It is, therefore, disheartening to read all this filth being spread online.

As the saying goes, when a wall cracks, the lizard finds its way in. Regina has become a weak point through which my political and personal enemies have been attacking me.” Concluding the statement, Nwoko alleged that the ongoing campaign against him is part of a larger effort to undermine his political progress and development projects. ‎

“My decision to marry her properly according to tradition is now being twisted into a tool for political blackmail. This is a witch-hunt that has been ongoing for years, an attempt to stop my developmental strides and tarnish me now that I am a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
