Meanwhile, the actor had earlier called for financial assistance through another colleague Kingsley Orji, to carry out a kidney transplant in India, in a video circulating on social media.
Orji ,who sat by his side to make the appeal ,revealed that Muonagor left the teaching hospital some days ago due to financial constraints.
He stated that the illness had affected his speech and urged fans and well-wishers to contribute for a transplant surgery.
”It has not been easy. He has been in this condition for months now. He wants to go for a kidney transplant. What we want is for you to help us for him to travel to India.
”He just came back from the ICU in Nnewi Teaching Hospital 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”.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), recalls that in November 2023, Muonagor had cried out for help, after revealing he was battling paralysis, which has affected half of his first leg.
