Veteran Nigerian actor, Taiwo Hassan, widely recognized as Ogogo, has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. On Monday night, his daughter, Shaki Taiwo, shared the news via a video on Instagram. She expressed the hospital's decision to cease treatment due to the severity of his condition. Shaki revealed, "Hello, everyone. I’m here for my daddy. He has cancer and it is at stage 4. The hospital is saying that they cannot treat him again and that they can’t give him chemo again."
Shaki appealed for medical or traditional help to save her father, stating, "We are not here to need money, and I really want to appreciate Senator Yayi. He has been the one footing the bill. What I’m here for is that if you can treat my daddy medically or traditionally, please, I’m begging in the name of God, help us. My daddy doesn’t want to die. Please, I don’t want my daddy to die. He’s in pain. He’s not happy. Please, guys, if you know anybody that can treat cancer."
Her second daughter, Haleemah, shared in a separate post that they were unaware of their father's diagnosis "until three weeks ago."
