Speaking in an interview with broadcaster Kola Olootu, the healer said he did not hesitate to decline, explaining that not every sum of money is worth chasing and that his personal integrity was not negotiable.
Ogogo's Stage 4 Cancer Battle
Legit.ng previously reported that Taiwo Hassan is battling stage 4 cancer, a diagnosis that was publicly confirmed by his daughters.
The practitioner noted that both herbal and conventional medical treatments tend to yield the best outcomes when a patient is identified early.
He was candid about the limits of intervention at an advanced stage, stating that once a condition reaches a critical point, any form of treatment becomes more of an attempt than a guarantee.
He described human efforts at that stage as a trial, rather than a reliable path to recovery.
