As ailing actor, Kayode Odumosu, known as Pa Kasumu battle to
survive his double ailments, some of his colleagues in the Association
of Nigerian Theatre Arts Practitioners, ANTP, are allegedly at
loggerheads over N600,000 donation made by an Ogun State based
businessman.
We were reliably told that after a certain businessman from Ogun
State donated a sum of N600,000 to save the ailing Nollywood actor via
some of his colleagues in ANTP some weeks back, there have been an
unending chaos among the colleagues.
It was gathered that Pa kasumu’s colleagues were at loggerheads
over what amount was to be given the ailing actor out of the sum as
others disagreed with the decision.
Furthermore, a group of Nollywood practitioners that consists of
production crew and veteran acts under the name of ‘committee of
friends’ were said to have approached Pa Kasumu over creating a new
account in which donations would be made but met a brickwall from the
Odumosus.
Currently, a total sum of N5.5million naira have been donated to Pa
Kasumu by the Lagos State Government and Ogun State Government as the
ailing actor struggle to stay alive.
When contacted, members of the Odumosu family refused to comment,
affirm or deny the tale and maintained that the most paramount and
important issue to the family remains raising the remaining fund and
saving the life of the ailing actor.
