A live in nurse, identified as Dora, has issued a written statement detailing what she described as disturbing incidents during her employment in the household of Senator Ned Nwoko, where she has worked since July 2023.
In the statement dated January 9, 2026, Dora said she began to observe noticeable changes in the mood and habits of Mrs Regina around September 2025.
According to her account, Mrs Regina started requesting that she purchase “hard drugs that needed prescriptions” and would sometimes contact her to ask about “the lethal doses of some drugs like morphine and pethidine.”
Dora further stated that on one evening she entered Mrs Regina’s room and saw “dangerous opioids, anesthesia and her regular weed scattered all over the table.”
She said Mrs Regina emptied a ketamine injection into a flat plate and instructed her to microwave it into crystals. Dora stated that she became alarmed by the situation and immediately brought it to the attention of her employer.
In the same statement, Dora addressed claims of domestic abuse, stating that she had never witnessed Senator Ned Nwoko physically abusing his wife.
“My boss Sen Ned Nwoko neither drinks nor smokes and I haven’t heard of him physically abusing my Madam in any way,” she wrote.
She added that the only disputes she was aware of involved repeated arguments over Mrs Regina’s drinking and smoking habits.
Dora stated clearly that she never agreed to carry out any of the requests made by Mrs Regina particularly those involving drugs or unsafe practices. She emphasized that she refused to comply or did not prepare or administer any substances and instead acted out of concern by reporting the incident.
The statement is being cited by supporters of Senator Ned Nwoko as one of the pieces of evidence supporting his claim that Mrs Regina’s challenges stem from drug and alcohol abuse.
Meanwhile, other statements circulating publicly claim that it was Mrs Regina’s friend Ann Cassie who usually ordered and mixed the drugs for her. These statements further claim that this allegation formed part of the reasons Ann Cassie was recently arrested and charged.
According to the same accounts, Ann Cassie was allegedly charged with multiple offences including claims of procuring an illegal abortion for Mrs Regina some years ago an issue Mrs Regina has referenced in one of her own social media posts as well as cyberbullying arising from statements said to be criminally defamatory and posted online.
Ann Cassie is reported to have been granted bail while the matters are expected to proceed through the legal process. Observers say the coming months may witness further legal and public developments surrounding the unfolding controversy.
“Why is Regina trying so hard to deny using drugs even on the face of abundant evidence”.
