A Nigerian legal practitioner, Barrister Adefunke Treasure, has sparked widespread conversation on social media after publicly criticizing Senator Ned Nwoko over his recent comments about his wife, Regina Daniels.
Lawyer Reacts to Ned Nwoko’s Allegations
Senator Nwoko, who represents Delta North Senatorial District, had earlier accused the popular Nollywood actress of drug abuse following her shocking revelation that she had suffered domestic violence during their marriage.
However, in a strongly worded Facebook post, Barrister Adefunke expressed disbelief over the senator’s claims, arguing that his account fit a “recurring pattern” often seen in cases involving influential men accused of abuse or misconduct.

According to her, Ned Nwoko’s public statements appeared inconsistent and carefully framed to discredit Regina Daniels rather than address the serious allegations she raised.
“This pattern is not new. Each time a powerful man is accused of wrongdoing, the woman’s character suddenly becomes the problem. It’s a distraction tactic,” she wrote.
Public Reactions
Her bold remarks quickly gained attention online, with many Nigerians applauding her courage for speaking up against powerful figures, while others argued that she should allow the couple to resolve their marital issues privately.
The ongoing dispute between Senator Ned Nwoko and Regina Daniels continues to attract public scrutiny, with both supporters and critics watching closely as the situation unfolds.
