Ogogo's Daughter Seeks Urgent Treatment for Actor Father

Taiwo, the daughter of veteran Nigerian actor Hassan, known by his stage name Ogogo, has made a public appeal for urgent medical and herbal treatment for her father, who is currently battling stage four cancer. In a late-night post on Monday, she emphasized that the family is not seeking financial assistance but is looking for medical experts with the knowledge to treat him.

Despite Ogogo's determination to survive, hospitals have reportedly refused to provide him with the necessary treatment. Taiwo acknowledged the support of Senator Adeola Yayi, who has assisted the family with medical bills.

She also revealed that Ogogo possesses an Indian visa; however, he has been declared unfit to fly, complicating the family's efforts to seek treatment abroad. Ogogo is a respected figure in the Nigerian film industry, particularly known for his contributions to Yoruba-language cinema, and has maintained an active career for decades.
