Prominent Nollywood personalities have rallied support for veteran Yoruba actor, Taiwo Hassan, popularly known as Ogogo, following an emotional appeal by his daughters for medical assistance as he battles stage-four cancer.

Actor and filmmaker Femi Adebayo, in a post on his X page on Monday, urged members of the public to help the family find medical professionals and facilities capable of reviewing Hassan’s medical records and offering treatment options.

“Please let’s rally around our beloved Sir Taiwo Hassan, who is currently facing a serious health challenge battling cancer,” Adebayo wrote.

He said the family was not seeking financial assistance but urgently needed medical direction.

“As shared by his family, they are NOT looking for money or financial support. What they urgently need is medical direction,” he said.

Adebayo called for recommendations for standard hospitals, specialists and advanced treatment centres anywhere in the world that could review the actor’s medical files and provide treatment options.

“If you know someone who knows someone in the oncology space, or a medical avenue that can assist please help reach out to his family immediately,” he added.
