Nollywood’s ailing actor Amaechi Muonagor, said to be battling kidney disease, diabetes, and stroke, is seeking financial assistance. According to reports, his health is fast deteriorating over his inability to raise funds to settle his hospital bills.
An actor, Kingsley recently took to social media to announce that paucity of funds has seen Amaechi leave the Intensive Care Unit of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital in Nnewi, Anambra State, where he was receiving treatment.
Orji also noted that Muonagor’s ailments had not only deteriorated but had affected his speech. He urged fans and well-wishers to support the ailing actor in undergoing a kidney transplant surgery.
Orji said: “It has not been easy. He has been in this condition for months now. He wants to go for a kidney transplant. What we want is for you to help us for him to travel to India.
“He just came back from the ICU at Nnewi Teaching Hospital a couple of days ago. He was responding to treatment but not very well.
“We decided to bring him home because there was no money but it is not advisable. He barely talks well. Please, he needs your help.”
Muonagor’s ailment became public knowledge last November, when his cousin and entertainer, Tony Muonagor, revealed that the actor was battling organ failure.
