Strong Reaction: Mercy Johnson condemns arrest of Regina Daniels’ brother

Popular Nollywood actress, Mercy Johnson, has responded to reports of the alleged arrest and detention of Regina Daniels’ elder brother by Senator Ned Nwoko.

According to Legit.ng, Regina Daniels’ brother, Sammy West, was reportedly arrested in Lagos on Sunday by Nwoko over his alleged involvement in the senator’s ongoing marital crisis.

The arrest came just a week after Regina Daniels publicly accused her husband, Senator Nwoko, of domestic violence and filed for divorce.

Reacting to the couple’s public breakup, Mercy Johnson — widely known as Regina Daniels’ godmother — expressed concern over Sammy West’s arrest.

Questioning the fairness of Nigeria’s justice system, she wrote:

“A child was arrested, no one can or has been allowed to see him for 2 days, he was flown from Lagos to Abuja and is allegedly being taken to court from the airport. How did we get here? Nigeria… Wow”.
