Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) national president Emeka Rollas revealed on Thursday, December 7, that he and other industry stars visited the sick actor at the hospital where he is undergoing treatment. Other guests present were Chief Ejiamatu Nwokeabia, who is a patron of the AGN.

Rollas further stated that he had authorised the transfer of funds from the AGN Trust Fund to the actor, which "due to his records with the Guild HMO & Insurance policy" may not be sufficient.

"Few days ago I led few of my colleagues and one of our National Patrons High Chief Ejiamatu Nwokeabia to check on Amechi Muonagor.
"He is in high spirit as witnessed by the people who acompanied me. I have approved some money to be sent to his account from the AGN TRUST FUND which may obviously not be enough due to his records with the Guild HMO & Insurance policy.
