Nollywood actor Amaechi Muonagor, 61, is currently paralysed and has cried out for help from his hospital bed.

The veteran actor, who starred in many Nigerian movies, revealed that he suffered a stroke which led to paralysis.

Pleading for help from a hospital bed, the actor disclosed that he cannot move without assistance.

He explained that he suffered a stroke just as he was about to get into his car while leaving a movie set.

He said he was on the movie set about seven months ago with some of his colleagues, Patience Ozokwo, Rita Edochie, Emeka Ani, Ebele Okaro, and more. He was about to enter his car when the stroke happened and it has been getting worse.

He expressed gratitude that it didn’t happen when he was driving as it could have been fatal.

Muonagor noted that he was first rushed to a hospital in Nnewi and he was there for two months before he was taken to the teaching hospital, where he has been for three months now.

He said he needs financial assistance because he has exhausted himself paying for hospital bed and medicine.

This comes just a week after his colleague, Mr Ibu, who is currently hospitalized, appealed to the public for assistance as he battles an ailment that could result in the amputation of a part of his leg.
