The Nigeria Police Force’s FCT Command has explained why Samuel Ojeogwu, brother of actress Regina Daniels, was arrested and taken to court.
According to police spokesperson SP Josephine Adeh, a petition was filed on October 28, 2025, accusing Samuel and others of crimes like conspiracy, trespass, and cyber-bullying. SP Josephine Adeh also explained that the police had invited Samuel for questioning, but he didn’t show up, leading to his arrest in Lagos and transfer to Abuja.
Samuel was then taken to court on November 6, 2025, and charged with conspiracy, trespass, assault, and theft. He is currently remanded in prison until he meets his bail conditions.
The drama started when Regina Daniels accused her husband’s camp of arranging her brother’s detention. In a video, she said, “I give up! What was my brother’s offence? Fighting for his baby sister because his in-law would always beat her up? I actually accorded the Nigerian police some respect but shame on you all. It’s obvious the highest bidder always wins. Now I’m crippled. I will return if that’s the only way, do whatever he says, get injected to be like a zombie, get locked up and raped in the house. Only then will my brother return. Because by law, there is no tangible case against Sammy West. Ned Nwoko is bigger than the whole of Nigeria, that’s what this means. We lost, or rather, I lost.”
