VDM Drags Regina Daniels’ Mother Amid Marital Drama: “You Sold Your Daughter For Money”
- Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan called out Rita Daniels over Regina’s marriage to Ned Nwoko
- The VDM accused Regina’s mother of pushing her into the union because of her wealth
- Drama unfolded as Rita Daniels fired back, claiming her daughter funded Ned’s campaign
- A marriage counsellor, Mrs Fakoya, stated that heaping the blame on Regina Daniels' mother alone might not be right
Nigerian activist, VeryDarkMan, has slammed actress and producer Rita Daniels, the mother of Nollywood star Regina Daniels.
In a video posted on his verified Instagram page, VDM berated Rita Daniels for allegedly being the reason her daughter got married to billionaire politician, Ned Nwoko, at such a young age.
He said:
“Rita Daniels pushed her daughter into that marriage because of money. Regina was just 19 then; she didn’t even explore her youth before being handed over to a man old enough to be her father.”

The social critic accused the actress of being overly materialistic and claimed she was more interested in her daughter’s financial elevation than her happiness.
The latest controversy comes amid what social media users have now dubbed “Season 2” of the alleged marital crisis between Regina and Ned Nwoko.
Rita Daniels had earlier blasted the Delta-born politician for reportedly arresting her son Sammy and daughter, accusing her in-law of behaving “like a madman.”
She defended her daughter’s marriage and even claimed that Regina had financially supported Ned Nwoko’s political campaign.
She said:
“My daughter didn’t marry Ned because of money. It was Ned who married Regina because of her fame. He is broke; Regina gave him $50,000 for his election — that’s about ₦72 million.”
Responding swiftly, VDM dragged Rita Daniels again, insisting that she should take responsibility for whatever her daughter is going through.
He said:
“Rita Daniels is the reason Regina is suffering now. She didn’t let her daughter live her life. She sold her off because she saw Ned’s billions. Now she’s crying foul. Regina still loves Ned; I can see it. But she’s a victim — a victim of her mother’s decisions."

Blaming Rita alone might not be right - Marriage counsellor
A marriage counsellor, Mrs Fakoya, stated that heaping the blame on Regina Daniels' mother alone might not be right.
She stated:
"Yes, Regina was very young when she married Ned, and it’s normal for people to question whether she genuinely made that decision on her own or whether family influence played a big role. In Nigeria, parents sometimes do guide or push their children into relationships they believe will offer security or status."
She added:
"However, blaming Rita alone feels too easy. Regina is now an adult with her own choices, emotions, and the right to walk away or stay. Also, we can’t pretend that Regina herself did not enjoy the benefits of that marriage; she lived the lifestyle, embraced the fame boost, and defended the union for years."
