Relatives of Nollywood actress, Regina Daniels, from the Ogwashi-Uku community in Delta State have given her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, a 48-hour ultimatum to accept the bride price paid for her marriage or risk a traditional declaration formally ending the union.
The demand was contained in an open letter signed by Favour Awele Obi on behalf of the community, accusing the senator of "disregarding local customs" and allegedly using his political influence to intimidate members of Regina's family.
According to the kinsmen, their tradition allows any woman to end her marriage as long as her family returns the bride price.
