Senator Ned Nwoko has reacted to the custody dispute with Regina Daniels, revealing a court ruling in Abuja that addressed access to their children amid growing social media controversy.

Senator Ned Nwoko broke his silence after Regina Daniels shared emotional posts accusing him of denying her access to their children.

In a long statement, Nwoko described her account as misleading and inconsistent with their family’s past practices. He said sharing photos and videos of the children had always been normal within the family.

According to him, Regina Daniels had also posted the children publicly for years without raising privacy concerns.

Nwoko stated that her absence from the children’s lives was a personal choice, not something imposed on her.

He added that the children were kept in a stable environment focused on routine, care, and emotional balance.

The senator also claimed that concerns had been repeatedly raised about her well-being. He stressed that encouraging therapy or rehabilitation should not be seen as punishment or cruelty. “Children deserve a parent who is emotionally present, mentally sound, and sober most of the time,” Nwoko wrote.

Court ruling on Regina’s access to children

Nwoko revealed that the matter had been addressed by the court. He said the ruling was in his favour with clear conditions attached. According to him, the court directed that Regina Daniels must undergo drug rehabilitation.

He added that she must also be assessed by the Abuja Social Welfare Department.

Nwoko stated that access to their children would be restored only after meeting these conditions.

He further disclosed that the case was adjourned to 4 February 2026 for the hearing of the substantive suit.

The senator also said that the court dismissed the fundamental rights action filed against him and the Nigeria Police.

Nwoko explained that the family chose not to publicise the ruling to protect her privacy and dignity.
