Senator Ned Nwoko has dismissed a negative drug test result shared by his estranged wife, Regina Daniels, calling it “misleading and disingenuous.” The 25-year-old actress had said she tested negative for substance abuse and acknowledged past use of “Molly,” while threatening legal action against accusers. Nwoko, 65, insisted the test only showed abstinence, adding: “Temporary abstinence does not erase the underlying challenges that brought this situation to light… The conditions under which this recent test was conducted remain unclear.”
He said earlier drug and alcohol findings came from “two independent, reputable centres in Nigeria and South Africa,” and argued the labs would be subpoenaed. He noted: “Any test conducted anywhere in the world will face court scrutiny and should be prepared to defend its results, just like the Nigerian and South African labs.” Nwoko also referenced a 2025 custody ruling directing Daniels to undergo supervised therapy, stressing that a single test “does not outweigh documented assessments conducted independently and professionally.”
