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

In a tearful message shared with the public, Muonagor stated, “I never thought I would be in this situation. Life can be so unpredictable. I had a stroke that has left me paralyzed, and I’m unable to move or care for myself. I am in dire need of assistance and support from well-wishers and the entertainment community.”

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.
