Popular Nollywood actor cries For Help as he battles stroke

Renowned Nollywood actor Ameachi Muonago, who is currently battling a severe case of stroke, has made a heartfelt plea to compassionate Nigerians for assistance in his struggle for survival.

In a video that has now gone viral, the veteran actor shared the distressing news of his ongoing seven-month battle with this debilitating ailment.

Muonago, in the emotional video, revealed that he has been grappling with the effects of this condition, which has left half of his body paralyzed, for an extended period.

He candidly disclosed his inability to walk independently as well as his incapacity to defecate due to the ailment.

“I am unwell, and I have been afflicted by this condition known as stroke. I wasn’t even driving when it happened; I was about to enter my car when I was suddenly struck by this problem. I was initially taken to Nnewi Hospital, where I spent two months, and from there, I was referred to the teaching hospital in Nnewi. Right now, I cannot defecate, and I cannot walk on my own. Half of my body is paralyzed, making it difficult even to urinate,” Muonago conveyed in the viral video.

In a heartfelt appeal, Muonago reached out to well-meaning individuals and expressed his regrets for not disclosing his condition to the public earlier. He emphasized the severity of his situation, saying, “I’m deeply sorry that I didn’t share this with the public sooner because I had no idea it would persist for this long. As it stands now, I implore kind-hearted individuals to come to my aid. This is a case of paralysis, and half of my body is immobile.”
