Nigerian politician Ned Nwoko is expressing pride in his first son with his estranged wife, Regina Daniels.
In a video posted on his Instagram page, he revealed that Munir received an award at his school, Abraham Lincoln American Academy, in recognition of his outstanding achievement and contribution during the academic year.
Ned said that, as a father, he is proud of his dedication to excellence and commitment to learning. Congratulating him on his achievement, Ned prayed that it was only the beginning of even greater accomplishments.
“Today, I had the pleasure of witnessing my son, Munir, receive an award at Abraham Lincoln American Academy in recognition of his outstanding achievement and contribution during the academic year.
As a father, I am proud of his dedication to excellence and commitment to learning. Congratulations, Munir. May this achievement be the beginning of even greater accomplishments ahead”.
Regina, while speaking on a livestream, with TikToker Jarvis, fought back tears as she revealed that she had not seen her kids since last year. She, however, expressed hope of seeing them soon and gushed over their growth.
Elsewhere on the livestream, she said, for some reason, she has checked her mind out of getting married, but she needs to have a girl. She explained that having boys is easy because at least you can groom them to have a role model in a father figure. But for your girl child, one has to be that role model for them to emulate.
On Mother’s day, Ned surprised many as he wrote 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.
Earlier this year, Daniels was noticeably absent as 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.
Recall that in November, Regina ended things with him citing domestic violence as her reasons for leaving her marriage.
Ned, in a public statement, had attributed the tension to what he described as her “battle with drugs and alcohol abuse.” According to Nwoko, his efforts to help his wife seek professional treatment are always resisted.
In December, Daniels 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 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.
