Why we can’t move Ogogo for spiritual treatment – Jide Kosoko

Veteran Nollywood actor Jide Kosoko has appealed to fans and well-wishers to continue praying for ailing actor Taiwo Hassan, also known as Ogogo, explaining why his family cannot move him to alternative facilities despite numerous offers of spiritual and medical assistance. In a statement shared on Instagram, Kosoko expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support but emphasized that Ogogo's current medical condition makes relocation from the hospital where he is receiving care impossible.

He stated that while over 300, and even over 500 people have offered assistance, the challenge lies in finding a suitable location to move him without interrupting his care. Kosoko urged those offering spiritual or specialised treatments not to feel offended by the family's inability to bring Ogogo to them, assuring that it is extremely difficult to move him at this stage of his treatment.

He expressed deep appreciation for the love and concern shown by people worldwide, urging them to continue praying and supporting the family. The statement came after Ogogo's daughters, Shakira and Haleemah Hassan, shared an emotional video disclosing his battle with stage-four cancer, prompting a global outpouring of support. Nollywood stars and a medical doctor have also been involved in mobilising assistance, warning against unverified herbal treatments that could worsen his condition.

Kosoko's update reaffirms that Ogogo remains under direct hospital care, urging the public to channel their support through prayer.
