The tension surrounding Regina Daniels’ family appears to have taken a new turn as her brother, Samuel Daniels, popularly known as Sammy West, has been released on bail.

Legit.ng reports that the marital crisis between Senator Nwoko and Daniels has been ongoing since October, when a viral video showed Daniels, 25, in tears, accusing Nwoko of domestic violence.

In the midst of the drama, the actress' brother Sammy was arrested on the alleged instruction of Ned.

Sammy’s elder brother, Lawrence Daniels, aka Sweezy, confirmed the development in a heartfelt message shared via his Instagram story on Monday.

He wrote: “Sammy, you’re a great man! Bail has been granted. Nigerians, thank you. From day one, I’ve said it, I believe you on this media space. None of your efforts are taken for granted… On behalf of the Daniels family, I say thank you. Thank God say man no be God.”

Sweezy claimed that Ned Nwoko influenced Sammy’s continued detention.

According to him, Ned allegedly paid the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to take custody of Sammy after initial proceedings. Lawrence insisted this went against proper legal process.

He alleged: “Ned has also paid NDLEA to have Sammy picked up into their custody. But a magistrate court does not have jurisdiction over drug-related cases, only a federal high court."

He further stated that the matter may be transferred to the Federal High Court, claiming it was all part of Ned’s plan.
