*…’Don’t let my father die’, daughter cries in video
A veteran Nollywood actor, Hassan Taiwo, popularly known as Ogogo, has been diagnosed with State 4 Cancer.
Kira Taiwo, one of the daughters of the 66 years old actor made this known on Monday in a viral video as she appealed to Nigerians for help to save his life.
Teary eyed, she said the help the family needed to save Ogogo’s life was not financial but treatment whether orthodox or traditional.
She explained that the hospital where her father was being treated had rejected him and they needed an urgent intervention irrespective of whether it is orthodox or traditional.
Disclosing that Ogogo’s tummy had become swollen, she said the Ogun State governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Senator Olamilekan Adeola, popularly known as Yayi had been footing the bill.
Her words: “Hello everyone. I’m here for my daddy. He has cancer and it’s stage four. The hospital is saying they can’t treat him again, they can’t give him chemo again. So, please, we are not here to beg for money. I really really want to appreciate Senator Yayi. He has been the one helping; he has been the one footing the bill.
“What I’m here for is that if you can treat my daddy whether it’s medical or herbs, e jo nitori Olohun (please, for God’s sake). My daddy doesn’t want to die… Please, please. If you know anyone who can treat my daddy… E jo, e jo; e ma je ki daddy mi ku ((please, please, don’t let my daddy die)…”
