A TikTok video by @legitngnews shows veteran Nollywood actors including Jide Kosoko, Yinka Quadri, and Mr Latin uniting in a emotional prayer circle for actor Taiwo Hassan, popularly known as Ogogo, who is currently battling stage-four health complications.
Covering the solemn moment, Punch Newspapers noted, “Filmmakers across the Yoruba movie industry have rallied around the beloved actor to seek divine mercy and intervention.” Furthermore, Premium Times reported on X that “Jide Kosoko clarified that Ogogo remains in a specialized hospital facility, making international transfer currently unfeasible.”
The video underscores the tight-knit solidarity within the Yoruba film industry when veteran icons face severe personal crises. Expect increased fundraising efforts and official industry-wide charity drives to assist with his ongoing treatment.
