.Popular social media influencer Timothy Gabriel, better known as Tumma, has publicly expressed regret after facing legal consequences for spreading false rumors about Nollywood actress Regina Daniels
During an appearance on the Lucky Udu Experience, Tuma opened up about the events leading to his arrest. He admitted that his viral video, which falsely accused Regina Daniels of infidelity, was what initially caught the actress’s attention. According to him, Regina personally commented on the video, warning him to steer clear of her marriage and private affairs.
“She told me to stay away from her personal life and warned that she would take action if I continued,” Tuma revealed. However, he confessed that he didn’t take her warning seriously at the time. Encouraged by the growing engagement his videos were receiving online, he went on to create more content repeating the baseless allegations.
I thought she was just joking. I didn’t realize the gravity of what I was doing,” he said during the interview. But things quickly escalated when legal steps were taken against him, leading to his arrest. The situation served as a wake-up call for the content creator
Looking back, Tumma acknowledged that he had crossed a line. He admitted to making poor choices driven by the desire for online clout and has since asked for forgiveness. “I deeply regret everything,” he said. “To Regina Daniels and the public, I am truly sorry for the harm my words may have caused.”
