“We’ve Made Every Effort To Return The Bride Price” – Regina Daniels’ Kinsmen Write Open Letter To Senator Ned Nwoko
The kinsmen of Nollywood actress Regina Daniels have written an open letter to her estranged husband, Ned Nwoko.
In a screenshot of their message posted by filmmaker Stanley Ontop, her kinsmen noted how marriage isn’t by force. According to them, if a woman decides not to continue in the marriage, custom demands that her family return the bride price, which they have done, but he has refused to accept it.
Regina’s kinsmen noted that if a man declines to go collect the bride price, it is within the community’s right to deposit it at a recognised location. The arrest and intimidation of the woman’s family is unacceptable and oppressive.
They demanded that Ned Nwoko take corrective action within 48 hours by acknowledging and accepting the return of the bride price and ensuring the immediate release and safety of all family members involved.
