Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North, has defended his wife, Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, following criticism of her remarks on the #EndBadGovernance protest. Regina had condemned the violence during the protests on social media, leading to backlash from those who accused her of being out of touch with the struggles of ordinary Nigerians.
In response, Regina acknowledged her privileged position but emphasized that she, too, is affected by the country’s economic challenges, pointing out that those around her also suffer from rising costs. Senator Nwoko praised his wife for her wisdom and expressed his commitment to addressing Nigeria’s issues, urging peaceful protests and promising to propose solutions to the nation’s economic and security problems.
