Ogogo says greed caused his altercation with fan in Ogun

Nollywood actor, Taiwo Hassan (Ogogo), has explained his side about what happened in a video trending on the internet which showed him having an altercation with a fan in Ilaro, Ogun State.

The video showed the actor in a tussle with a man in the midst of a crowd. Ogogo later got into his car and drove away.

Taking to his Instagram page, the actor said the reason for the altercation was greed.

He said the said fan alongside others had approached him, and demanded money.

Ogogo added that despite giving them all the money he had, the said fan wanted more and proceeded to hold his which led to the altercation.

He said, “I was in Ilaro, my own home town, for an inspection of a project, after which some guys walked up to me for the normal appraisals. ‘We watch your movie’, ‘give us money, ‘We watched you all through our childhood’…All these as an actor we hear everyday.

“I offered all I had on me and one of them dragged me by my Agbada and demanded an amount I can’t pay. I asked him to leave me, he said, ‘Do your worse’. The rest is history.”

The actor admonished fans to desist from harassing entertainers for money.

“Do you pay anyone for doing your job? No. It’s our job too. Accept all we offer when we do. Remember, once a boxer, always a boxer,” he wrote.
