Veteran actor, Sadiq Daba who was recently flown abroad for treatment following a diagnosis of leukemia and prostate cancer has sent some good news home.

In a note to veteran journalist, Azuka Jebose Molokwu, Daba wrote on the state of his health and the report from London doctors, “All the test results for my prostate cancer did not find spread. I was told in Nigeria that it had spread to other organs of my body. But all tests here by Specialists came back negative, with regards to the spread. It can be treated with drugs and injections. Also, the doctors, after tests for Leukemia, concluded that it is in remission. The Specialists placed me on drugs to help with the remission. I will see an oncologist on Monday; no need for an operation(surgery) to open me up. In Nigeria, I was told I needed surgery. My brother na wa o. I am feeling like a sweepstakes winner.”
