Kanayo O Kanayo's reaction to the passing of Amaechi Muonagor

Social commentator Morris Monye revealed this on Sunday through his X handle.

Muonagor was reportedly receiving dialysis due to kidney failure.

Only a few days had passed since his heartbreaking video appeal for money to support a kidney transplant went viral.

Monye wrote, “Deeply heartbroken by the news of Amaechi Muonagor’s passing.

“He was a talented Nollywood actor whose presence on our screens was truly masterful.

“We watched with concern as he battled health issues, offering whatever support we could to help him seek treatment in India.

“This tragic loss highlights the need for better healthcare in our country.”

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Muonagor, a native of Idemili, in Anambra, was born Aug. 20, 1962.

He was an actor and producer. In 2016, he was nominated for AMVCA 2017 Best Actor in a comedy.

In 1989, after his youth service, Muonagor started working for the News Agency of Nigeria. He left his job a few years later for an acting role in his first movie as Akunatakasi in Taboo 1, a Nigerian movie.

Iyi, I was always afraid whenever you did your acrobatic somersault. It was indeed outstanding despite your weight. You would always say. Nwokem, o taa, meaning, you grew up doing it. On set, there was no dull moment as you did your best to preserve our Igbo culture. God knows why he called you now.Good night dear brother. RIP
