The public dispute between Senator Ned Nwoko and his estranged wife, Regina Daniels, has taken a sharp turn as actress Georgina Onuoha has stepped into the fray. In a blistering social media address, Onuoha questioned the Senator’s credibility and urged the Nigerian public to scrutinize his professional record in the United Kingdom.
Onuoha’s intervention follows Nwoko’s dismissal of a recent independent drug test taken by Regina Daniels in the UK, which returned a negative result for illicit substances.
Challenging the ‘Moral Compass’
Onuoha addressed the Senator directly, suggesting that his public commentary on Daniels’ personal life invited a reciprocal investigation into his own past.
“Given all this drama you are conducting as a sitting senator writing public epistles, claiming moral authority over the life of a young woman who, by her own account, was 17 when you married her, I think it is time Nigerians begin to examine your own background,” Onuoha wrote.
Questions Over UK Legal License
A significant portion of Onuoha’s critique focused on Nwoko’s frequent references to his legal career in England. She challenged him to provide transparency regarding his current professional status in that jurisdiction.
- Licensing: Onuoha questioned why Nwoko does not currently hold an active license to practice law in England and Wales.
- Practice Status: She demanded an explanation for why he is no longer in active legal practice there, despite often citing his international legal experience to bolster his public image.
Reference to 2001 Disciplinary Case
In perhaps the most specific allegation, Onuoha cited a matter of public record regarding a past disciplinary action against the Senator.
“Can you address the fact that in Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal Case No. 8315/2001 (Onibudo) you were found guilty of professional misconduct and ordered to pay a £20,000 fine along with substantial costs? That is not gossip. That is a matter of public record,” she asserted.
Defense of the Independent Test
Onuoha criticized Nwoko for positioning himself as the judge of Daniels’ character while ignoring the results of an independent medical assessment. She argued that the Senator’s attempt to paint Daniels as “mentally unstable” or “drug-dependent” lost its weight in the face of scientific evidence from a reputable UK facility.
Conclusion of the Challenge
The actress concluded by framing the controversy as a matter of transparency and accountability for a public official. She insisted that if the Senator intends to act as a “moral compass” for the nation, he must be prepared to answer for his own professional standing and past conduct.
As of the time of this report, Senator Ned Nwoko has not issued a formal response to the specific allegations regarding the 2001 tribunal case or his current licensing status in the United Kingdom.
