In the spirit of Mother’s Day, Nollywood actress Regina Daniels is celebrating herself and her mothers.
On her Instagram page, she shared a collage of photos of herself with her kids and her mother, actress Mercy Johnson. Daniels expressed gratitude to her Maker for being a mother of two.
She also appreciated her mother, Rita Daniels and Mercy Johnson, whom she called her bonus mother.
“9 months twice, thank you, Lord. Happy Mother’s Day to me, my precious mother @rita.daniels06, my bonus mother @mercyjohnsonokojie and all the mothers out there
We are so amazing and deserve to be celebrated every day “.
Hours ago, her estranged husband, Ned Nwoko, had written a note to the mothers of his children, which included Regina Daniels. He extended a heartfelt appreciation to them for their care, sacrifice, and commitment to nurturing the next generation. According to him, their efforts do not go unnoticed, and they remain central to all that truly matters.
Despite being one of the busiest politicians, Ned Nwoko had attended his sons’ inaugural school gala in Abuja. Ned described it as a proud and heartwarming moment to witness the excellence, discipline, and vision being instilled in them. He commended the management and staff for their commitment to raising leaders who will shape tomorrow with integrity and purpose.
In a heartbreaking post, Daniels had made an emotional appeal to her son’s school. She promised to always watch and pray for him from afar, and told the school to look after her babies well.
Last year, Regina called out Ned for constantly publicising her children to garner negative attention from their father. She pointed out the irony that someone of his status could be posting his kids at this time, knowing fully well it would attract media scrutiny.
Responding to her, Nwoko described her account as misleading and inconsistent with their family’s past practices. He said that sharing photos and videos of the children had always been a normal part of family life. According to him, Regina Daniels had also posted the children publicly for years without raising privacy concerns. Nwoko stated that her absence from the children’s lives was a personal choice, not something imposed on her.
Recall that in October, Regina ended things with him citing domestic violence as her reasons for leaving her marriage.
