Nigerian veteran actor, Amaechi Muonagor is battling with several internal illnesses and is pleading with Nigerians for support.
The actor’s cousin, Tony Oneweek, explained that his cousin’s situation is dire as he is battling with not just one illness but several life threatening illnesses.
Recall that Jennysoul had reported some weeks ago that the actor is suffering from paralysis. And that the he was seen in a heartbreaking state on a hospital bed, where he pleaded with fans and colleagues to help him.
According to his cousin, the actor is currently fighting kidney disease, diabetes, and stroke. He said that in order to treat the paralysis caused by the stroke, Amaechi has been going for weekly physiotherapy and dialysis.
He posted a picture of himself and the actor on a sick bed, he expressed that he has been footing the hospital bills until this recent stroke which had caused them to seek help from the public.
In his words:
“This picture was taken two weeks ago when I visited my cousin Amaechi Monagor (Aguiyi) at the Nnewi Teaching Hospital. I initially had wanted to quietly assist the much I could, but later decided to make this post to clarify some things so that my friends, fans, and Amaechi’s fans, and indeed the online community can be better informed.
Amaechi is currently down with kidney disease, diabetes, and stroke. He had been managing his diabetes over the years and living his life. He is presently undergoing weekly dialysis and other treatments at the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital Nnewi. His family had been shouldering the costs for years until the recent stroke made his case more serious and indeed more expensive to battle alone, hence the publicity.
Within the limits of my own capabilities, I have done and am still doing my best to assist the much I can, even reaching out to well-meaning individuals who are donating to this cause. Contrary to most online publications, Amaechi is my first cousin. His father and my father are of the same father. We have had a wonderful relationship as members of the same industry and I am proud of him as a “brother”.
Amaechi is so loved worldwide and his fans, friends and ndi Obosi have been wonderful so far. Many groups have been donating money for his hospital bills. As of today, there’s some improvement. His blood sugar is under control but he is still on admission, weekly dialysis, physiotherapy, and other treatments. His full treatments and recovery require sustained funding or donations. No amount is too small. Pls, keep Amaechi and his family in your prayers. May God grant him full healing.
Pls kindly donate to Amaechi Monagor’s First Bank plc account number 3036808437. God bless you now and always. Tony Oneweek Muonagor.”
Tony Oneweek explained that aside from his own personal assistant, other organizations have helped in donation and currently, Ameachi’s sugar level is stable as the treatment kicks in. Also, he expressed his gratitude to fellow Nigerians for their support and encouragement.
