He sided with the senator's position that Regina needed help and criticised fellow industry figures for staying silent.

He also took a swipe at Rita Daniels, questioning how she could be campaigning for the AGN presidency while her daughter's marital and mental wellbeing appeared to be in question.

The remarks generated significant attention at the time, drawing both support and criticism from within the Nigerian entertainment industry.

Emeka Rollas tenders unconditional apology

In his letter, Emeka Rollas acknowledged that being right about an issue does not automatically justify the way one chooses to speak on it.

He noted that a coincidental meeting with Rita Daniels, during which mutual acquaintances attempted to broker peace, gave him fresh cause to reflect.

His apology extended beyond the Daniels and Nwoko families to include the AGN Board of Trustees and several colleagues he named in his original statement, among them Okey Bakassi, Charles Inojie, Chinyere Wilfred, Jide Kosoko, Sanni Danji and others.

He wrote:

"A recent coincidental encounter with Mrs. Rita Daniels, where some people tried to make peace between us, gave me another opportunity to reflect. So today, without excuses or conditions, I sincerely apologise: To Mrs. Rita Daniels and the Daniels family. To Senator Prince Ned Nwoko and his family. To Regina Daniels. To the AGN Board of Trustees. And to Okey Bakassi, Charles Inojie, Chinyere Wilfred, Jide Kosoko, Sanni Danji, Agility, Nazareth Jesse, my former aides and every colleague whose name I mentioned. I am sorry."

Emeka Rollas was clear that his apology carries no conditions, adding that whether those involved choose to accept it is entirely their choice.

He also acknowledged that he may still hold some of his original convictions but takes full responsibility for his timing and approach.

"Leadership is not only about having the courage to speak. It is also about having the humility to acknowledge when we could have spoken differently, waited longer, or chosen a better path," he wrote.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Rita Daniels, mother of Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, clarified that her daughter visited Ned Nwoko’s residence after being invited to spend time with her children amid swirling rumours about their relationship.

She reportedly contacted actor and social media personality Uche Maduagwu to explain that Regina’s visit was simply about seeing her children and did not mean she had reconciled with her estranged husband, as some social media users had speculated.

Maduagwu shared a screenshot of their conversation on Instagram, where Rita Daniels thanked him for his concern, while he assured her of his continued support for Regina as discussions about the actress and Ned Nwoko continued online.
