Human rights activist and journalist Omoyele Sowore has raised serious allegations against Senator Prince Ned Nwoko, accusing him of abusing his political influence and manipulating state institutions for personal vendettas.
Sowore claims that Samuel Ojoegwu, popularly known as Sammy West, has been unjustly detained due to Nwoko’s influence over certain elements within the Nigeria Police Force. According to the activist, the senator has allegedly deployed substantial funds to intimidate members of his estranged wife, Regina Daniels’s family and friends.
“The public must understand that the true criminal here is Ned Nwoko himself, a man who married a minor, exposed her to drugs through manipulation, and repeatedly violated her bodily autonomy,” Sowore stated.
The allegations extend to claims that Nwoko pressured police officers to block Sammy West’s bail and attempted to have Regina Daniels’s friends and her mother, Rita, arrested under false accusations of supplying her with drugs. In addition, he is said to have intercepted and monitored Daniels’s private WhatsApp communications. Sowore highlighted: “Over 250 of such WhatsApp messages were submitted to implicate Regina Daniels's close circle that he alleged were supplying her hard drugs.”
Further claims include that Nwoko sponsored the fabrication of medical reports from Nizamiye Hospital and another private facility in Abuja in an effort to criminalize Daniels and those close to her.
Sowore warns that these actions amount to grave abuses of state power and violations of fundamental rights. He called on Nigerian leadership to investigate Nwoko’s influence over the police and NDLEA, urging the Attorney General of the Federation and relevant international human-rights bodies to intervene.
“No individual, no matter how wealthy or politically connected, should be allowed to weaponize law-enforcement institutions for personal vendettas,” Sowore emphasized.
The activist concluded that justice must prevail and that Senator Nwoko must be held accountable for his alleged crimes.
