“I was on a movie set with Emeka Ani, Patience Ozokwo, Rita Edochie, and Ebele Okaro. I was about to enter my car when I was struck with this problem and since then it has been getting worse. Right now, I can’t move, I can’t walk on my own. Half of my left leg is paralyzed, my left hand is not movable, so it is a problem for me."
He concluded, “I’m calling on well-minded individuals to come to my assistance, to see how they can help me,” Muonagor says in the video.
“It is paralysis, half of my body," he said in a video that has now gone viral," he finished.
