Actor Amaechi Muonagor

A video of a veteran actor, Amaechi Muonagor seeking assistance from the general public has generated reactions on social media.

Muonagor in the video that has gone viral was seen bedridden in a hospital as he cried for help from Nigerians.

In one of the videos, the movie star explained that he suffered a stroke that has the left side of his body paralyzed.

He also recounted how the sickness hit him when he was about to get into his car while leaving a movie set.

According to the 61-year-old actor, he was on the movie set about seven months ago with some of his colleagues, Patience Ozokwo, Emeka Ani, Rita Edochie, Ebele Okaro, and more. As he was about to enter his car, the stroke happened, and it has been getting worse.

The actor explained that he could no longer move his body or walk on his own because the left part of his body was paralyzed.

Muonagor also apologized to the public for not making his situation known earlier because he didn't expect it would last this long.

Amaechi then called for help from Nigerians and his many fans. He said he needed assistance because he had exhausted himself paying for hospital beds and medication.

The video also showed the actor's bandaged leg as he used a wrapper to cover his body on the hospital bed. According to the film star, he's in dire need of help.

Amaechi 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.
