Sammy West, brother to Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, has lamented that he was “invited by police to report for questioning in Abuja through a WhatsApp message”.
In a post via Instagram story on Monday, West posted a screenshot of the purported exchange with a detective who identified herself as Oluseyi from the Nigeria Police Force area command in Maitama.
The message invited West to the command for “fact-finding purposes” over an investigation that reportedly listed his name in connection with several offences.
“Greetings to you Mr. Sammy Ojeofor, my name is Detective Oluseyi attached to NPF Area Command Metro no 30 Nile Street Maitama Abuja,” the message reads.
“We spoke on your direct line on Friday 24th of October 2025. Just to remind you of the invitation, we are investigating a case of criminal conspiracy, trespass, assault, criminal intimidation, theft and cyber bullying assault, which your name featured prominently.
“I am by this text message inviting you to come to the office today being Monday 27th October 2025 by 3pm for fact finding purposes.
“The office address is Nigeria Police Force Area command Metro, No 30 Nile Street Maitama Abuja. On your arrival report to the Area Crime Officer or ask for me. Looking forward to seeing you pls.”
Reacting to the invitation, West, who is also a singer, questioned the method and the charges.
“Is this how police invite? Is that charge for me?” he wrote, adding that the detective used the wrong name.
West has been in the spotlight since a viral video showed Regina accusing her husband Ned Nwoko of domestic violence.
In the aftermath, West accused Nwoko of physically assaulting his sister and sending thugs to harass their family.
“Makachi, e pain me say una wan finally laugh my sister. Let me repeat, anywhere wey man Dey beat woman, whether na my sister or not, I go fight with my blood,” he wrote in Pidgin language.
“Senator Ned Nwoko you get luck say after you beat my sister again, smash her head for wall, you run commot send thugs. I swear I for burst your jaw.”
Efforts by TheCable Lifestyle to reach Josephine Adeh, spokesperson of the FCT police command, for comments on the matter were unsuccessful.
