Best to just get a replacement cable.
For the short term you may be able to force some lube down it by removing the end at the spindle (easier than at the speedo), squirting some liquid graphite into it then forcing it back up the housing with some compressed air. Actually better to do this at the speedo end as gravity will draw it back down inside the housing.
When you do get a replacement cable you need to tie a strong line to the end of the old speedo cable before you pull it back through the fire wall. Tie the end of the line to the new speedo cable. Use the line to pull/direct the new speedo cable through the fire wall. Should be a clip on the end of the cable where it comes through the grease cap on the hub. A bit of putty will keep the water out of the bearings.
