Key Points
- Regina Daniels says she will return home to secure Sammy’s freedom. She shares the decision in a tense Instagram post.

Regina Daniels says she will return to her husband’s house so her brother, Sammy, can be released from police custody. The Nollywood star posted early on Friday that she is “giving up” to save him.

She alleges her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, wants her back before police let Sammy go. Earlier reports said a remand request was being considered as her brother heads to court report.
What she said in her post
In the post, Regina asks why her brother was held for “fighting for his baby sister.” She claims she will return, obey orders, and face harsh control if that frees him.
She also says there is no “tangible case” against Sammy and blames power play. “We lost or rather I lost,” she writes, calling out the police and her husband.
The actress has linked the arrest to efforts to force her back home after abuse claims. She says she is nervous about what happens once she steps inside again.
Rita Daniels and Regina’s father have pushed for Sammy’s release in Abuja. Close friend Mercy Johnson has also spoken up while fans ask for calm.
Legal watchers say the case now turns on clear police steps and court timelines. Friends want open access to Sammy and a swift, fair review of the file.
Family efforts and next steps
Relatives, colleagues, and community voices have urged a peaceful path forward. Some ask elders to weigh in while lawyers pursue formal remedies in court.
Mercy Johnson’s public plea added pressure during the week of rising claims. See our earlier coverage in this Mercy Johnson release plea post.
New statements from both camps may follow as Regina prepares to return. Supporters urge safety plans and trusted escorts for any move back to the house.
If police grant access, family members hope to see Sammy in good health. They say the priority is his release while wider issues get addressed.
For now, Regina’s choice signals a painful trade to free her brother. The next hours may decide the pace and shape of any reunion.
