The actor’s plight was first made public in 2023 by Singer Tony One Week.

Tony made the actors plight known in a post on the social media detailing Muonagor’s travels.

In the post, Tony said, β€œThis 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 as much as 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.

β€œAmaechi 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.

β€œContrary 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 β€˜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.

β€œAs 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.”

In March, 2024, REPORT AFRIQUE reported the death of another popular Nollywood comic actor, Mr. John Okafor, popularly known as Mr. Ibu.

Ibu died following an elongated stay in the hospital that culminated in the amputation of his leg. His family said he passed on following issues related to blood clot.
