Nollywood actress, Uche Montana, has denied the speculation making the rounds that she was involved in the reported drug crisis surrounding actress Regina Daniels and her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko.

Montana, in a statement on her Instagram page on Monday, addressed the accusations a few days after Nwoko, in a lengthy Facebook post, named Regina’s close friends and relatives, including actresses Sonia Uche and Uche Montana, as allegedly undermining his wife’s rehabilitation process.

Nwoko had claimed that the individuals in question repeatedly ignored doctors’ orders to restrict access to Regina during therapy and would “bring her the same drugs she was being treated for.”

Reacting to the allegation, Montana said, “My attention has been drawn to a circulating post that appears to link my name to certain claims.


“For clarity, I have no involvement or connection to the situation described. This note is simply to set the record straight and protect my peace.”

Her rebuttal is coming as the controversy surrounding Regina Daniels’ marriage to Nwoko continues to intensify.

Recall that two weeks earlier, Regina had alleged in a viral video that she was a victim of domestic abuse, describing herself as a “slave” in her husband’s home.

Nwoko, however, dismissed the allegations, insisting that his wife was battling “drug and alcohol addiction” and accusing her of physically assaulting domestic workers.

Actress Regina Daniels’ brother, Sammy, has been granted N5 million bail.

Sammy was reportedly granted bail on Monday, November 10, 2025, after spending days in detention.

Recall that Sammy was remanded in Keffi Prison by a Dutse Magistrate Court on Thursday and was later transferred to Suleja Prison.


Celebrating Sammy’s release on his Instagram story, his elder brother, @Sweezzy1, wrote: “Sammy, you are a great man. Bail has been granted! Nigerians, thank you.”

Recall that Sammy was arrested in Lagos a week ago by Senator Ned Nwoko over his alleged involvement in the ongoing messy breakup with Regina Daniels.

Legendary Nigerian singer, Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Face or 2Baba, has described his hit song African Queen as both a blessing and a burden in his decades-long career.

Speaking on the Entertainment & Lifestyle show which started trending on Sunday, the veteran artiste said the 2004 classic gave his career its defining spark, even though it has also brought him several challenges over the years.

He said, “That song has been a very huge blessing and e don turn to problem join for me, you know, but Like I said earlier, I’m grateful for everything.

Reflecting on his career, 2Face said while African Queen remains his most iconic song, he has created many other works that fans deeply connect with.

“There are so many other songs I have that are brilliant, and many people resonate with them too,” he said.

The song, released in 2004 as part of his debut solo album Face 2 Face, catapulted 2Face to international fame and cemented his status as one of Africa’s biggest music exports.

However, the song’s legacy has been trailed by controversy, with his former Plantashun Boiz bandmate, Ahmedu Augustine Obiabo, popularly known as Blackface, repeatedly accusing him of stealing the song.

2Face has consistently denied the claim, saying African Queen was a collaborative effort during their band days and not an act of theft.

The long-running debate resurfaced in August 2025 after Billboard named African Queen the ‘Greatest Afrobeats Song of All Time’.
