Nollywood star Amaechi Muonagor is asking fans for financial assistance for a kidney transplant.
The veteran actor shocked his followers when a video of him laying in bed, pleading for help, went viral on social media.
In the video, fellow actor and friend Kingsley Orji, seated next to Muonagor, appeals on his behalf.
"It has not been easy. He has been in this condition for months now. He wants to go for a kidney transplant.
“He just came back from the ICU... 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 appeared in films such as ‘Aki’ and ‘Paw Paw’.
Nollywood actors are paid film-by-film and many do not have healthcare insurance.
