Rita Daniels, Nollywood actress and mother of mother of Regina Daniels, has lashed out at her son-in-law, Senator Ned Nwoko, accusing him of orchestrating the arrest of her son, Sweezy.
In a viral video on Instagram Stories via Sweezy’s account, Rita Daniels appeared visibly angry as she confronted the situation, expressing frustration over what she described as betrayal and abuse of power.
With a phone in her hand, the visibly angry mother said:
“You wanted someone with a high star to boost your fallen star. If you think you can bite the finger that fed you, you’ll go down. My daughter supported your senatorial election with $50,000. We are covering you up and making you feel like an Odogwu — you’re mad.”
In the same post, her son, Sweezy said :
“Dey stress my mama no be your fault. We all go mad. I’ve never seen where violence is used to make peace. Pride wan kill you. Bring your ego down and say sorry.”
It would be recalled that tensions erupted between Rita Daniels’ family and Senator Nwoko after his young wife, Regina shared a video in which she alleged being abused by her elderly husband.
Since then matters have escalated with both parties throwing punches.
The senator, in a public statement, attributed the problem to what he described as her “battle with drugs and alcohol abuse.”
According to Nwoko, his efforts to help his wife seek professional treatment are always resisted. The senator further alleged that Regina had engaged in violent behaviour at home, claiming she assaulted three domestic staff and destroyed property.
