Regina Daniels’ Mum Spits Fire, Fights Nollywood Actress, Chika Ike Over Ned Nwoko

Published

on

Many would say she is acting like a concerned mother.

For Rita Daniels, everything, including her billionaire son-in-law, Ned Nwoko must be kept from hawks.

In a video that has gone viral online, Rita Daniels has even threatened to go ‘spiritual’ with the war to win her son-in-law back from the warm arms of beautiful Nollywood actress, Chika Ike.

According to blogger Ada Nanka, there is a battle ongoing between Rita Daniels and Chika Ike over who rules the heart of billionaire Nedd Nwoko, who married Rita’s teenage daughter, Regina last year.

Regina, who gave birth to a baby boy, Munir , a few months ago is Ned Nwoko’s sixth wife.

Chika Ike isn’t new in Nollywood. A graduate of Human Kinetics and Health Education, she also bagged an Executive Masters of Business Administration from Ivy-league research University, Harvard.

Chika Ike

One of Nollywood top actors to delve into business many years ago, she has a chain of businesses including real estate, coupled with the acting career.

Chika Ike is also one of the first actors to start collecting millions of naira as artiste fees.

A divorcee from an early marriage, she would always tell you in any interview that, “I’m not sure if I’m going to get married now. But if I eventually do, l will let go and allow God to guide me.”

Always showcasing a life of luxury, she had been romantically linked with wealthy personalities among who is Prince Ned Nwoko long before Regina Daniels was born!

Many industry observers wonder why Regina Daniels Mum, Rita is allegedly accusing Chika Ike  of an affair with Ned Nwoko when Chika and many other actresses have been involved in such affairs before her daughter started acting as a toddler.

Rita Daniels

Rita, who is also an actor, is a movie producer too.

She revealed in a BBC pidgin interview in 2019 that her daughter couldn’t have been happy with a young man if she didn’t marry billionaire businessman/ lawyer Ned Nwoko.

Regina Daniels came to limelight as a 7-year-old, featuring in a slew of Nollywood movies.

That was 14 years ago. She will be 21 on October 10, 2020.

Currently, a Mass Communication student of the Igbinedion University, Benin, Regina, who is currently nursing her baby and out of school,  became a social media sensation in 2018 when she started flaunting luxury items and cars on her Instagram page.

From flying private jets to different parts of the world to flaunting luxury cars, she became the kind of newsmaker acting never afforded her.

It was later revealed that she was dating Ned Nwoko.

The customary wedding between Regina and Ned  took place in Ogwashi-Alor in Delta State on May 28, 2019.

Her wealthy husband, Ned Nwoko is a London trained lawyer reputed to be running the biggest law chamber owned by an African in the United Kingdom. The London-based law firm, Ned Nwoko Solicitors, engages in management and verification of foreign debts of third world countries, including their component states. 

He served as a legislator between 1999 and 2003 and lost the Delta North senatorial election.

In spite of being away from politics, he was never away from the news. Some years back, perhaps in giving vent to his architectural streak, he designed and built a wondrous home on a large expanse of land in his native Idumuje-Ugboko, Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State. The eye-popping edifice, nicknamed ‘Castle in the Air,’ is a combination of Arabian and western designs complemented with a royal traditional touch which experts have described as a tourist destination.

It has a zoo with many species of wild and weird animals including Crocodiles, Ostriches, Horses, Sea Eagles, Porcupines, monkeys, rabbits, and others. Another section of the land has fish ponds that have about 50 thousand catfish and other species of fishes in them. Apart from these, the land also has poultry section with about 5000 chickens while another part of the land is filled with thousands of palm trees.

Just behind the main castle is an Olympic size swimming pool and a lawn tennis court, with a standard table tennis adjacent it. Estimated at about N10 billion, the castle is situated 1000 feet above sea level which makes it the highest point in Delta State.

Nollywood actor and producer Rotimi Salami recently expressed deep concern over the poor performance and low audience turnout for his latest film, “Kilanko,” in Nigerian cinemas.

The movie, which hit theaters on March 6, 2026, was a labor of love that took three years to produce and was directed by the late Allwell Ademola.

In an Instagram post, Salami, in a video with veteran actress Yetunde Wunmi, revealed that the movie’s weekend sales were disappointing, putting it at risk of removal from theaters.

Appealing to fans for support, Salami thanked those who attended promotional events and screenings, but acknowledged that the turnout was lower than expected.

He warned that if sales do not improve by the weekend, the film may be pulled from cinemas prematurely.

He wrote, “I am making this post with a heavy heart. Kilanko sales at the cinemas last weekend weren’t good. That’s why I couldn’t post throughout yesterday.

“Still, I say a very big thank you to everyone who came out at different times for the meet-and-greet, and likewise to everyone who came out to watch, but the numbers are pretty small.

“If Kilanko doesn’t make the expected figure by this weekend. It might be kicked out of the cinemas even before Ramadan is over. Please, we need all the support we can get to reach a retainable figure.

“Kilanko is surely a beautiful movie that everyone must see. Thank you, mama @yetunde_wunmi_ for the prayers”.
