Majek Fashek has cancer

Popular Nigeria’s reggae music superstar, Majek Fashek has cancer of the neck and throat. Cancer has also spread to his throat and hovering around these parts of his body, flogging him with severe pains, movement restrictions and also slowly losing his voice. Cancer may also be furiously spreading to other organs of his body.

In a video released this morning by his Manager, Majek seemed disoriented and in pains. His voice was hoarse.

A Facebook user who shared the update described his condition thus: “…The ears, nose and throat are the most common areas affected by head and neck cancers. Symptoms of this cancer may depend on where cancer develops and how it spreads. For example, tumors in the larynx or pharynx may be discovered as a lump in the throat. Cancer in the mouth may cause sores in the mouth or swelling of the jaw.
