Nollywood actress Mary Njoku has reacted to her junior colleague, Regina Daniels’ revelation that she got married at 17.
Kemi Filani reported hours ago that while hitting back at Ned, Regina admitted that she did drugs because it was what her husband wanted. She questioned when she married Ned at 17, if she was on drugs.
In an Instagram post, Mary noted how she was still figuring out her personal hygiene at 17 and noted how 17-year-old boys were still learning to wipe their asses. She pointed out the irony in how people expect Regina to be perfect because she is on camera.
The wife of Iroko TV admonished netizens to refrain from digging up people’s pasts just to justify their own pain. She urged them to normalise helping when someone cries for help, not when it’s too late.
“She was 17. Teen
At 17, I was still figuring out personal hygiene.
Some 17-year-old boys are still learning to wipe their asses.
But now, we expect perfection from her because she is on camera?
Let’s stop digging up people’s pasts just to justify their pain.
Let’s normalise helping when someone cries for help, not when it’s too late”.
Mary Njoku had written a note to Regina, saying that seeing her cry for help on social media had broken her heart. Mary noted how she and thousands of Nigerians watched her grow into the woman she was today, and she is appalled by the comments online.
Anita Joseph had slammed Ned Nwoko for bullying Regina Daniels’ family, questioning whether he left room for reconciliation. Calling for the release of Sammy, she stated that marriage isn’t by force, and the actress is allowed to leave.
FFK’s ex-wife, Precious Chikwendu, questioned where the Actors Guild and those whom Regina has helped were. She noted how Daniels is too young for this experience, and questioned Ned for torturing a person whom one promised to love and protect. She described Ned’s action as narcissīstic and vicious.
Mercy Aigbe, noted how Regina, is young, talented, and still learning. Aigbe noted that we all go through seasons, some gentle and some stormy, but we can overcome. She told her to keep her head high, keep growing, and never lose her beautiful spirit.
Ruth Kadiri, in an Instagram post, noted that Regina celebrated and supported everyone as much as she could. Ruth stated that Regina will forever be celebrated.
