A man identified as Tuma has been arrested by the police over false allegations made against businessman Ned Nwoko and his actress wife, Regina Daniels.
Tuma himself confirmed the development, revealing he was invited for questioning following a petition filed by the couple. While maintaining his innocence, he assured the public of his willingness to cooperate with the authorities and disclosed that he would be represented by a lawyer.
In a statement, he said:
“I’m compelled to share with you that the Nigeria Police have invited me for questioning regarding a petition filed by Ned Nwoko, Regina Daniels’ husband.
“As a law-abiding citizen, I’m committed to cooperating with the authorities. I’m confident in my innocence and eager to clarify the matter.
“Since my lawyer, SM Oyeghe Seprebofa, is unavailable, his partner @ak_musa_ will represent me. I appreciate your support and understanding during this time. God bless you all.”
Meanwhile, a blogger has claimed that Tuma has now been detained, hinting that he could face legal consequences in the coming days.
