A recap.
Hardworking Muna Obiekwe’s kidney disease battle started early last year but he kept it secret to avoid excessive exposure to the media and his colleagues.
Instead of soliciting for funds for a life-saving kidney transplant surgery, the actor planned a stage play in order to raise more money for kidney dialysis but when he ran out of cash earlier this year, he stopped the dialysis.
On Sunday the 18th of January 2015, his deteriorating health became worse. The actor who was found vomiting in his home in Lagos yesterday was rushed to a nearby clinic in Festac where he was in coma for over 4 hours. He was put on emergency kidney dialysis but it was too late.
Muna Obiekwe didn’t wake up from coma. Doctors at the undisclosed specialist hospital in Festac reportedly certified him dead at exactly 4:05pm yesterday. This was disclosed by the sister of the deceased.
His body has been transferred to the Nigerian Navy reference Hospital, Ojo mortuary.
