A new controversy has hit the Daniels-Nwoko family as Regina Daniels’ brother, Sweezy, publicly accused billionaire businessman and politician Ned Nwoko of detaining his brother, Sammy West, under harsh conditions. According to Sweezy’s claims on Instagram, Sammy has allegedly been held without food or water since his arrest, and no one has been permitted to visit him.
In a series of emotional posts, Sweezy alleged that Ned Nwoko is using Sammy’s freedom as leverage to compel Regina to return home. “Sammy has had nothing to eat or drink since he was arrested. Nobody is allowed to see him. Ned said if Regina doesn’t come back home, Sammy will not be released,” he wrote, warning that Ned should be held responsible if anything happens to his brother. “You can’t do this in a civilized country,” he added.
The accusations have set off a wave of concern and outrage online. Sweezy also shared a petition link demanding justice and transparency regarding his brother’s welfare. The petition has already garnered over 1,260 signatures, reflecting public support for the family’s call for accountability.
The situation reportedly began after Sammy received a text message—allegedly from the police—summoning him for questioning over unspecified criminal allegations. He had ignored the message, only for law enforcement officers to later visit his home to arrest him.
The incident has sparked a major online debate, with Nigerians expressing mixed reactions. While some are demanding a formal investigation into the matter, others have urged both parties to settle their differences privately, given the family’s public profile.
This unfolding drama adds another layer to the already tense situation between Regina Daniels and Ned Nwoko, whose marriage has frequently been under public scrutiny. Many social media users have questioned how wealth and influence might be shaping the dynamics of justice and personal relationships in this high-profile saga.
The story continues to attract attention, with fans and critics alike calling for transparency and due process as more details emerge.
