Regina Daniels’ brother, Sammy West (Samuel Ojegwu), says police arrested him on Monday in Lagos. He alleges Senator Ned Nwoko (Chinedu Munir Nwoko) is behind the move.
In Instagram Stories, he posted a warrant with listed charges. He said officers held him at Ogombo station. He earlier shared an earlier police invite text.
What his posts show
The warrant image names offences: theft, cyberbullying, conspiracy, intimidation, assault. It bears an FCT magistrate header and a signature stamp. Last week he got an earlier police invite text.
A separate clip shows men outside his gate that morning. Relatives stand near them and ask for proper identification cards. He says the men kept quiet while one flashed papers.
Neighbours question why an Abuja file targets a Lagos resident. He says the team named a case number but refused details. He agreed to go with them to Ogombo police station.
Inside the station, he filmed short clips from a corridor. He smiled at one point and wrote a note on warrant. He later posted that he was safe and calm.
Context and next steps
Nwoko has argued in recent posts that critics twist family issues. He shared a video to counter abuse claims.
It remains unclear which complaint led to the listed counts. The posts do not show a petition or the complainant’s full details.
Cyberbullying cases often start with social media posts and replies. Police tend to treat repeated insults or threats as harassment.
Conspiracy and intimidation are wide terms under Nigeria’s penal laws. They depend on proof of agreement, intent, or fear.
For now, his claims remain untested by any court. He has the right to a lawyer and to contact family.
Fans have weighed in across X and Instagram with split views. Some urge calm and ask both sides to avoid fresh drama.
Others demand a full police note that sets out facts. They want dates, place, and links to any case numbers.
ValidUpdates will keep tracking verified updates on this case. We will cross-check posts and official notes before any changes.
Ogombo division serves parts of Lekki and Ajah in Lagos. It often handles neighbourhood disputes and domestic reports.
The FCT label on the warrant raises jurisdiction questions. Transfer orders between commands are common in cross-state probes.
If charged, he will appear before a court to enter plea. For now, police can grant bail or hold him pending review.
