One of the daughters of veteran Yoruba actor, Taiwo Hassan, popularly known as Ogogo, Kira Taiwo, has accused some Nigerians of trying to make money from her father’s battle with stage-four cancer.
Kira made the allegation during an emotional TikTok live session on Saturday, where she sobbed while speaking about her father’s condition and the financial demands allegedly being made by some people offering to help the family.
“My father is a good father. Some people are even trying to make money with us in this whole situation. Fear God. This one will come and bring solution, N800k, N5m, 11,000 dollars, N18,000 dollars. Do you want to make us broke? We are not billionaires,” she said.
She said the family was not financially capable of meeting such demands, stressing that their priority was to find treatment for the actor.
She also disclosed that the situation was taking a toll on her own wellbeing.
“I want to check my BP, I am not okay too,” she said.
Kira said the actor’s illness had also deeply affected his brother, whom she referred to as her “big daddy”.
