Nigerian Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North, has publicly refuted allegations from his estranged wife, Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, who claimed he married her at age 17. In a statement posted on his social media on Thursday, Nwoko labeled the claims as “false, misleading, and malicious,” suggesting they are an attempt to damage his reputation amid their marital disputes.
Key details from Nwoko’s response:
• During their first meeting, Regina stated she was 21 and provided her INEC voter’s card as proof, listing her birthdate as October 10, 1998.
• He has retained the card since then.
• Their marriage occurred six years ago, making Regina 27 years old by verifiable records.
This dispute highlights ongoing tensions in their high-profile relationship, with no further details on the marital challenges provided in the statement.
