Actress Georgina Onuoha has fired back at Senator Ned Nwoko following his reaction to Regina Daniels’ recent drug test result, challenging his moral authority and urging Nigerians to scrutinise his own record
In a detailed social media post, Onuoha addressed Nwoko directly: “Given all this drama you are conducting as a sitting senator writing public epistles, claiming moral authority over the life of a young woman who, by her own account, was 17 when you married her, I think it is time Nigerians begin to examine your own background, the same way you insist on dissecting hers.”
She highlighted that Daniels had taken an independent medical test in the UK that returned a negative result, questioning Nwoko’s right to dismiss it. Onuoha went on to reference his professional history, writing: “Since you consistently reference your legal career in England, can you please explain to Nigerians why you do not currently hold an active licence to practise law in England and Wales? Can you explain why you are not in legal practice there?”
Onuoha also reminded Nwoko of a past disciplinary case: “And since you enjoy lecturing the public about credibility and character, can you address the fact that in Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal Case No. 8315/2001 (Onibudo) you were found guilty of professional misconduct and ordered to pay a £20,000 fine along with substantial costs? That is not gossip. That is a matter of public record.”
She added: “When you step forward to dismiss a young woman’s independent medical test results and position yourself as the moral compass of the nation, Nigerians are entitled to ask: on what authority? You have made yourself the judge of her character, her choices, her health, and her life. Yet you avoid explaining your own professional standing.”
Onuoha concluded with a direct challenge: “If you truly believe in transparency, then answer these questions: Why are you not licensed to practise in England today? Why were you sanctioned for misconduct? Why should Nigerians accept your declarations of moral superiority without scrutiny? The public is watching. And this time, the questions are about you.”
Her message comes amid the ongoing public controversy between Nwoko and Daniels, which has continued to draw attention and reactions across social media.
