Again, another Nollywood veteran, Amaechi Muonagor is on the sick bed and he has cried out for financial assistance from Nigerians over his medical situation.
According to the 61 year actor, who looks emaciated in a viral video posted online, he is down with stroke which he has been battling with in the last three months
The actor said, “I’m sick. This thing that is called stroke caught up with me, and from there, they rushed me to the hospital. The first hospital they rushed me to was in Nnewi, where I spent some two months and I was referred to Teaching Hospital Nnewi and here I am.”
Muonago said the stroke has caused significant swelling in some parts of his body and he is unable to eat and he has been in the hospital for the past three months.
The hospital he revealed is out of stock for the necessary medications he needs for his treatment and therefore needs the assistance from Nigerians to get the necessary drugs or be transferred to another hospital where he can get adequate treatment.
He explained that his problem started about seven months ago after wrapping up shooting with his colleagues, Ebele Okaro, Patience Ozokwo, and Rita Edochie among others. He has just finished on set and had entered his car to head back for his hotel when he suddenly found himself with stroke, and since that day, the situation has gone worse and has been unable to eat.
Attempts to reach out to the Actors Guild Of Nigerian President Emeka Rollas to know how AGN will come into the matter proved abortive.
You will recall that another veteran actor, John Okafor aka Ibu few weeks ago cried out for help from his hospital bed as he told Nigerians that he will not want to lose any of his legs.
