- Regina Daniels released an emotional video asking the public to stop insulting her mother, Rita Daniels
- She said her mother was the one who stood by her for seven years and even supported Ned Nwoko politically
- Regina revealed she once gave Ned 50,000 dollars for his campaign and said the family was not broke
- Her defence of her mother came at a time when she was also alleging that Ned wanted her relatives arrested
In the middle of the messy breakup between Regina Daniels and Senator Ned Nwoko, one person began to receive a lot of online attacks: her mother, Rita Daniels. Many people blamed Rita for allowing her daughter to marry a much older man. Others began to suggest she was benefiting from the marriage. Regina decided to address that directly.
In a teary video, she begged people to stop dragging her mother. She called her the best thing that ever happened to her and even said she was her God on earth. That line alone showed how strongly she felt about the way her mother was being talked about online.
Regina said people needed to stop saying she married Ned out of greed. According to her, her family was not broke, and her mother had suffered for them. She revealed that at one point, she even gave Ned 50,000 dollars to support his political run. That claim matched what her mother later said in a viral call, that their resources went into his campaign and that people should stop making it look like he picked Regina from poverty.

By saying this, Regina was trying to flip the story. Instead of the popular idea that Ned uplifted her family, she was saying her family also boosted him.
At the same time all this was happening, Rita Daniels was also alleging that there was an instruction for her to be arrested on or before Monday. Regina shared that chat publicly. That made her defence of her mother even more serious. It was not only about online insults, it was about real-life pressure on the people around her.
So when Regina said Leave my mother alone, she was talking to both the public and to her estranged husband.
One thing that has been clear in Regina’s posts is that her family is her line in the sand. She kept saying that the problem started when people around her began to get arrested or were invited by the police. She said it was a strategy to isolate her. Defending her mother was part of that same fight. She did not want a narrative where her mother would be blamed for a marriage that she now says was not even legally registered.
Even while defending her mother, Regina said she still cared for and respected Ned. She said that is love. But she added that she would fight for her children with or without him. In other words, she could respect him and still refuse to let her family be dragged.
That video helped people see that for Regina, this crisis was not only about a husband and wife quarrel. It was about protecting the people who stood by her before the marriage and who she felt were now being punished because she wanted out.
