This is actually not the best of time for veteran Yoruba actor, Kayode
Odumosu better known as Pa Kasumu as he has gone blind and can only
walk with the support of people.
The 66-year-old was recently spotted at an event launched by actress,
Foluke Daramola for ailing and aging Nollywood veterans.
Odumosu has been suffering from both liver and heart ailments that
affected his memory and eyesight.
The condition worsened after he couldnโt raise enough money to fund
his trip to India to continue his treatment.
According to reports, the veteran actor initially fell ill in 2013
when he suffered a partial stroke but he travelled to India in 2015
for treatment and his condition improved.
The actor also confirmed his vision had gotten better due to constant
use of eye drops and that he no longer feels body pain shortly after
his return to Nigeria.
Odumosu was required to return to India two months after the first
trip and his condition reportedly began deteriorating in 2017 after he
was unable to raise funds for the second trip.
In the process of trying to source for funds for the trip, he
misplaced his international passport.
Members of his family were said to have moved him from his home in
Abeokuta to his elder sisterโs residence at Aseese, Ogun State in
2016.
