Controversial journalist Kemi Olunloyo has raised concerns over Nollywood actress Regina Daniels after a video reportedly showing the actress in a wheelchair, with slurred speech and unusual movements, circulated online during her 25th birthday celebration on October 10, 2026.
In statements circulating online, Olunloyo alleged that a drug report shown to her listed 11 substances, including ketamine. She claimed that the alleged substance use had affected Daniels’ muscles and contributed to her reported mobility difficulties.
However, the allegations, including claims about the contents of the purported report and the cause of the actress’ condition, have not been independently verified. No confirmed medical assessment has been provided to establish the cause of the reported symptoms.
Olunloyo further alleged that a female drug dealer had been arrested and accused the individual of mixing ketamine with Fanta before administering it to the actress. These claims have also not been independently confirmed.
The journalist said she had previously raised concerns about Daniels’ alleged substance use but faced criticism from Nigerians who dismissed her warnings. She also questioned the actress’ age, maintaining that Daniels turned 25 on Saturday.
Reacting to birthday messages shared on the actress’ social media pages, Olunloyo questioned whether the situation reflected how a 25-year-old should spend such a milestone celebration.
She also speculated about the possibility of an autoimmune disease, although no verified medical evidence has established that Daniels suffers from such a condition.
Describing herself as a retired journalist and health professional, Olunloyo said she could not publicly release the alleged drug report because of privacy concerns.
Despite her claims, she expressed hope for the actress’ recovery and said she was praying for her well-being.
As of the time of this report, the allegations remain unverified, and the cause of the symptoms shown in the circulating video has not been independently established.
