Nollywood stars have rallied behind veteran Yoruba actor Taiwo Hassan, popularly known as Ogogo, after his daughters appealed for urgent medical assistance as he battles stage-four cancer.

Actor and filmmaker Femi Adebayo urged the public to help the family connect with cancer specialists, hospitals and advanced treatment centres capable of reviewing Hassan’s medical records and recommending treatment options.

Adebayo stressed that the family was not seeking financial assistance, but medical expertise and direction.

Actress Toyin Abraham also shared a video of Hassan’s daughters, Lima and Kira Taiwo, on Instagram, urging people with possible medical connections to reach out to them.

The appeal followed emotional messages from the daughters, who said their father’s condition had deteriorated. They called on cancer specialists and medical facilities to consider his case and provide possible treatment options.

The daughters said Hassan had been unable to continue chemotherapy at his current hospital and appealed for another medical avenue that could give him a chance of recovery.

Hassan, 66, has spent more than four decades in the Nigerian film industry and has featured in over 300 movies, becoming one of the most recognisable figures in Yoruba cinema.

Content creator Xxssive has publicly criticised music executive Jude Okoye, blaming him for the breakup of the iconic Nigerian music duo, Psquare.

In a video shared on his Instagram page, Xxssive expressed disappointment over the prolonged rift between brothers Peter and Paul Okoye, alleging that fans have been denied the opportunity to enjoy the group because of Jude Okoye’s role in the dispute.

He claimed that Psquare’s success was built on the brothers’ talent, performances and music, arguing that neither Peter nor Paul has released solo songs that have matched the duo’s biggest hits.

Xxssive also alleged that Jude Okoye’s management negatively affected the careers of other artistes, including Cynthia Morgan and May D. He questioned Jude’s record as a talent manager and maintained that fans were drawn to Psquare because of the duo’s performances rather than their former manager.

The comments add to the ongoing public discussions surrounding the long-running disagreements involving the Okoye brothers and their former manager. Jude Okoye has not publicly responded to Xxssive’s remarks at the time of this report.
