He emphasised that the affection, good words, and thoughtful gestures were not overlooked.

“Birthdays may be ordinary days to me, but moments like these, filled with family and love, make them truly special.

The love, kind words, and thoughtful gestures did not go unnoticed and are deeply appreciated. Thank you for making the day warm, memorable, and filled with genuine goodwill.”

Recall that Regina broke her marriage with him in October, citing domestic violence as one of the reasons.

In a public statement, Ned ascribed the stress to her "battle with drugs and alcohol abuse." According to Nwoko, his efforts to assist his wife in seeking professional aid are invariably met with resistance.

In an interview with NAN, the lawmaker stated that he wants Regina to go to rehab to stay alive and well, not only for himself but also for their children.

Regina chastised Ned last week for continually publicising her children in order to draw unwanted attention.

She noted the absurdity of someone of his standing publishing his children at this time, knowing full well that it would draw media attention. Nwoko responded by describing her account as deceptive and inconsistent with their family's previous traditions.

He stated that sharing images and videos of the children has always been a common and accepted part of family life.

He claimed that Regina Daniels has been publicly posting the children for years without raising privacy issues. Nwoko maintained that her absence from the children's lives was a personal decision, not one imposed on her.
