Nollywood actress, Uche Montana, has denied allegations linking her to the alleged drug abuse crisis in the household of actress Regina Daniels and her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko.
The actress made this known in a statement on her Instagram page on Monday, days after Nwoko, in a detailed post on Facebook, accused Regina’s siblings and close friends, including actresses Sonia Uche and Uche Montana, of sabotaging his wife’s rehabilitation process.
Nwoko had alleged that the group frequently defied medical instructions restricting access to Regina during therapy and would “bring her the same drugs she was being treated for.”
Reacting, Montana wrote, “My attention has been drawn to a circulating post that appears to link my name to certain claims.
“For clarity, I have no involvement or connection to the situation described. This note is simply to set the record straight and protect my peace”.
Her response comes amid escalating controversy surrounding the marriage of Regina Daniels and Senator Nwoko.
Two weeks ago, Regina, in a viral video, alleged that she was suffering domestic abuse and described herself as a “slave” in her husband’s house.
Nwoko, however, countered the claim, saying his wife was battling “drug and alcohol addiction” and accused her of violent behaviour toward domestic staff.
In her own posts, Regina accused Nwoko of hypocrisy, claiming he introduced her to the substances he now blames for her condition.
She alleged that he encouraged her drug use, locked her up, seized her phones, and forced himself on her whenever she resisted.
