Ogogo’s Family Denies False News of Daughter’s Childbirth Amid Mourning

The family of late Nollywood veteran Taiwo “Ogogo” Hassan has publicly refuted circulating claims that his daughter, Shakirat (Kira) Taiwo, has given birth to a baby boy. The misinformation gained traction online, accompanied by a misleading video.

In a statement shared on her Instagram page, Haleemah (Lima) Taiwo, another daughter of the late actor, urged followers to disregard the rumors. “This is not true,” she emphasized, clarifying the need for accurate information during their time of grief.

The statement came in response to numerous calls and messages from concerned friends and family seeking confirmation about Kira's alleged childbirth. “At a time when our family is mourning the loss of our father, we kindly ask everyone to stop spreading or sharing unverified information about our family,” Lima added.

The viral report described the supposed newborn as "My Daddy’s Carbon Copy," suggesting the birth took place shortly after Ogogo's burial. However, Lima's disclaimer aims to halt the spread of unverified claims that could further distress the family.

Ogogo, a respected figure in Yoruba cinema, passed away on August 23, 2026, at the age of 66 after a battle with stage-four cancer. His burial followed Islamic rites the next day in his hometown of Ilaro, Ogun State.

The family's plea for privacy during this difficult time highlights the emotional toll of both their personal loss and the public's fascination with celebrity lives. They have expressed gratitude for the prayers and support received from fans and friends.

As the family navigates their grief, they urge the public to respect their situation and focus on the legacy of their beloved father, rather than propagate false narratives.
