Nollywood actor Amaechi Muonagor has passed away as a result of complications arising from kidney-related problems, diabetes, and stroke. The sad news occurred on Sunday, March 23, 2024.
Tragically, his demise occurred shortly after he reached out on social media, appealing for financial support to cover the expenses of a kidney transplant.
Recall that last week, a video of the actor who was battling kidney disease and required urgent financial aid to undergo treatment in India emerged online.
His fellow actor, Kingsley Orji, brought his dire situation to the public’s attention, appealing to Nigerians for generous contributions to facilitate his immediate transfer to India for necessary medical care.
Orji revealed that Muonagor has recently left the teaching hospital on his own accord, citing financial limitations, even though he still desperately needs immediate medical care. His condition has greatly affected his ability to speak, necessitating the pressing requirement for a kidney transplant operation.
“It has been a challenging journey. Amaechi has been battling this condition for months now, and the situation has worsened. He urgently needs to undergo a kidney transplant in India,” Orji expressed, visibly concerned.
“Although he recently left the ICU at Nnewi Teaching Hospital due to financial limitations, his condition remains critical. His speech is impaired, and he requires immediate assistance.”
In November 2023, Muonagor first informed fans about his ailment by revealing his battle with paralysis affecting half of his body. “I fell ill suddenly while on a movie set, and it escalated to the point where I couldn’t move or walk on my own. Half of my left leg is paralyzed, and my left hand is immobile. “I appeal to kind-hearted individuals to assist me in overcoming this paralysis, which has left me incapacitated,” he said.
