Serenity Royale Hospital in Abuja has denied issuing a viral medical document claiming Nollywood actress Regina Daniels is receiving treatment for severe drug dependence at its facility, describing the report as entirely fabricated.
The circulating document alleged that Daniels, who is separated from her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, had been diagnosed with substance use disorder and placed on a home-based detox programme beginning September 24, 2025.
The document also appeared to carry the signature of the hospital’s Managing Director and Head of Clinical Services, Adekunle Adesina.
In a statement released on Thursday, the hospital distanced itself from the publication, stressing that no such report originated from its records.
“Our attention has been drawn to a post on an alleged mid-term home detox report being circulated online in the name of Serenity Royale Hospital with respect to Nwoko Regina.”
“We wish to state clearly that the publication… did not emanate from us, and we respectfully request the public to disregard the same,” the disclaimer read.
The controversy erupted shortly after one of Nwoko’s wives accused Daniels on Instagram of exposing her to drugs and alcohol years ago, claiming the influence nearly destroyed her marriage.
She maintained that Nwoko strongly condemns substance use of any kind.
“You know my husband completely hates alcohol, drugs, and smoking. He has always been clear that he would never accept any wife who engages in such habits.”
“The only reason you’re having issues with him is because he wants you to stop your drug and alcohol addiction,” she alleged, adding that Nwoko’s insistence on intervention helped her recover.
Before the allegations, the co-wife had been posting cheerful updates about her family life, including home videos with Nwoko and a vacation clip captioned: ‘Too busy building my peace, life, and family — no time for anything else.’
Meanwhile, Daniels’ brother, Samuel Ojeogwu (popularly known as Sammy West), has regained his freedom after being arrested and charged with criminal conspiracy, trespass, assault, intimidation, and theft, charges reportedly stemming from a petition filed by Nwoko.
