Ex-AGN President Rolland Apologises to Regina Daniels, Ned Nwoke

Former president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Emeka Rollas, has publicly apologized to actress Regina Daniels and her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, during their marital crisis last year.

Rollas, in a statement shared on his Instagram page on Thursday, said he had reflected on the manner in which he handled the controversy and regretted the timing and platform he chose to air his views.

The former AGN president had, in November 2025, publicly weighed in on the marital crisis between Regina and Nwoko, saying the actress “needs help” and calling out several senior actors whom he said had witnessed incidents involving her.

He also criticised Rita Daniels over her involvement in the AGN leadership race and addressed issues surrounding Nwoko, who was then the guild’s Board of Patrons chairman.

However, in his latest statement, Rollas said he now regretted making the comments while the Daniels family was going through a difficult period.

“Sometimes, with the passage of time, we look back at our actions and realise that being right about an issue does not necessarily mean we handled it the right way,” he said.

Rollas said a recent chance encounter with Rita Daniels, during which some people attempted to reconcile them, prompted him to reflect further on the controversy.

“A recent coincidental encounter with Mrs Rita Daniels, where some people tried to make peace between us, gave me another opportunity to reflect,” he said.
