Nollywood actress, Sonia Ogala, has berated the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) police over a statement regarding the detention of Regina Daniels’ Brother, Sammy West.
Naijaonpoint reports that Regina and her family members have accused her estranged husband, Ned Nwoko, of orchestrating the arrest.
However, the FCT police spokesperson released a statement explaining the reason for his arrest.
The statement added that Sammy has been granted bail, but he is being held until he perfects his bail conditions.
However, actress Sonia Ogala, who has been fighting for her colleague Rita Daniels, the mother of Regina and Sammy, slammed the police statement.
Ogala told the police to “fear God”. She insisted that Sammy was never granted bail.
She said Sammy was taken very early to a secluded Magistrate court in Dutse while his family and lawyer were at the police station, unaware of what was going on.
When his case was called, Sonia stated that Sammy had no lawyer present and was assigned a court-appointed lawyer. However, he insisted that he wanted his own family and his own lawyer, seeing as his biological father, a trained lawyer, had travelled from Lagos to Abuja just for him.
Ogala said that by the time they got to the court, Sammy had been moved again, and the magistrate had “disappeared” and “locked the charges”.
Ogala accused the Nigerian police of misrepresenting the facts. She added that Rita Daniels has collapsed and Regina has locked herself in a room, threatening to harm herself.
Ogala urged the Nigerian police to do the right thing. She questioned them on what crime Sammy committed and asked why he should be persecuted just because he defended his sister, Regina, during an alleged domestic violence incident involving her husband, Ned Nwoko.
