A daughter of renowned Yoruba actor Taiwo Hassan, also known as Ogogo, has refuted claims that her father, the 66-year-old actor, has died. The false rumors surfaced on social media after a Facebook user claimed that Ogogo's daughter, Haleemah Taiwo, announced his passing. The actor's daughter, Lima Taiwo, vehemently denied the report, urging the public to cease spreading the false news on Instagram.
Lima and her sister Kira Taiwo had previously made emotional appeals for help due to their father's deteriorating condition, which is attributed to cancer. Lima revealed that the actor's health had worsened, and some hospitals had declined to continue treating him. Kira added that the cancer had advanced to stage four, and the current hospital was no longer able to provide chemotherapy.
The family only became aware of the severity of the illness three weeks ago and is seeking medical assistance rather than financial donations.
