Regina Daniels blasts Actors Guild president over help claim

Regina Daniels, a prominent Nigerian actress, has responded to comments made by Emeka Rollas, the president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), who suggested that she requires assistance. Rollas’ remarks appeared in a lengthy Instagram post on Thursday, in which he advised Rita Daniels, Regina’s mother, to focus on her daughter’s health rather than pursuing the AGN presidency. He also addressed the recent separation between Regina and her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, stating that Regina needs help and criticizing some Nollywood veterans for remaining silent on the matter.

In response, Regina Daniels expressed disagreement with Rollas’ statement, questioning his motives and accusing him of financial misconduct and ingratitude. She took to her Instagram story, writing, “Respectfully, there must be something wrong with you, sir, to say I need help?” She further alleged that Rollas has been enriching himself under the guise of caring for actors’ wellbeing and accused him of bitterness stemming from a past incident.

The exchange occurs amid a highly publicized breakup between Regina Daniels and Senator Ned Nwoko, with both parties making allegations against each other. A viral video surfaced online in which Regina accused her husband of domestic violence, while Senator Nwoko denied the claims and instead accused her of drug abuse. The situation has sparked a heated debate within the Nigerian entertainment industry, prompting some veterans to weigh in.

The Actors Guild of Nigeria has not officially commented on the dispute between Regina Daniels and Emeka Rollas, but the incident highlights the need for support and resources for actors facing personal challenges. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the AGN will address the concerns raised by Regina Daniels and other industry professionals.
