Ogogo Hassan's Daughters Seek Help for Their Father's Cancer Battle

Kira and Haleemah, the daughters of veteran actor Taiwo "Ogogo" Hassan, have shared that their father is fighting Stage 4 cancer. They are asking for support as they look for treatment options.

The sisters posted emotional videos on their Instagram pages on Monday night, revealing their father's condition.

They mentioned that several hospitals have turned him away for treatment. They are reaching out to anyone who can offer medical or traditional help for their father.

Kira said, “I’m here for my daddy. He has cancer, and he’s in stage 4. The hospital is saying that they cannot treat him again; they can’t give him chemo again. So please, we are not here to beg for money. I really love to appreciate Senator Yayi. He has been the one helping us; he has been the one footing the bills. What I’m here for is that if you can treat my daddy, if you can start chemo for him, whether it’s medical or herbs, please, I beg you.

“My daddy doesn’t want to die. He’s in pain. He’s not happy. Please, please, if you know anybody who can treat him natively or medically, I beg you, please, don’t let my daddy die. Any help, anybody that you know that can treat cancer, please, I’m begging you, please, you can send me a DM or my sister, or even his own DM, my sister will be able to get you to his phone.”

Meanwhile, Haleemah said she cannot imagine losing her father. She urged anyone who can help to reach out to her or her sister directly.

She shared that doctors found out about her father's cancer three weeks ago. She added that he really wants to live.

“He has cancer, and it is very serious. The hospitals are refusing to treat him, and nobody is willing to do anything. We are not here to ask for money, that is not what this is about, but if you know someone who knows someone who can help, please reach out. This man has a strong will to live. If you saw him right now, you would not believe anything was wrong.

“It has only just started to show. We did not even know the full extent of it until three days ago. Please, if you know anyone willing to treat him, we are ready to try anything. Just give him a chance. My big uncle, Yayi, has helped; nobody knows he’ll show up for us this way. I can’t watch my daddy die,” said Haleemah.
