Nollywood actress Regina Daniels’ mother, Rita Daniels, has publicly shared a distressing photo of her son Sammy in police custody while expressing profound grief. The development comes amid allegations by Regina’s brother Sweezy that Senator Ned Nwoko is involved in intimidation tactics against Sammy.
Sweezy claimed on Instagram that Sammy West’s situation has escalated beyond a simple arrest. He alleged authorities denied Sammy access to legal representation and basic necessities like food and water during detention.
After being transferred from Lagos to Abuja, Sammy’s parents met with him in a bid to secure his freedom. Rita Daniels took to Instagram on Thursday, posting the emotional photo with the caption: “Oh God, my heart is broken.”
Family Reconciliation Amid Crisis
In a positive turn, Regina Daniels expressed heartfelt joy over her parents’ reconciliation after years of estrangement. The actress described their reunion as a long-awaited moment of family healing in a Facebook post.
Regina revealed her parents buried their differences purely for her happiness, emphasizing the reconciliation came with no hidden motives. She reflected on her family’s journey, stating: “Two concluded sworn enemies reuniting with no negative ulterior motive other than their daughter’s happiness.”
The parents’ reconciliation appears strategically timed, as the family unites efforts to secure Sammy’s release from custody. This development follows Regina’s brother Sweezy’s public accusations against Senator Ned Nwoko regarding the detention.
