Last photos of Muna Obiekwe, prior to his death

There are so many people who don't believe Muna Obiekwe is gone. Unfortunately it's true. Here's a photo of him when he was rushed to the hospital yesterday before he gave up the ghost. He collapsed at home and they rushed him to the hospital where doctors confirmed him dead on arrival  See another pic of him on a dialysis machine during one of his treatments after the cut. Really sad...

Shocking news! Actor Muna Obiekwe is dead

So sad! Actor Muna Obiekwe has died. He died yesterday afternoon around 4:15pm in a hospital in Lagos after a battle with kidney failure. He was rushed to the hospital yesterday after he collapsed at his home. Muna has been quietly battling this kidney disease but kept it hush hush from friends and colleagues. Sad! A colleague said for over two weeks before he died he didn't go for his dialysis.

Muna needed money for his health problems but instead of going public to raise money, he told friends he was planning a stage play to raise money but died before he could do it.

Meanwhile, there's some twitter handle called @MunaObiekwe that's denying his death. That is not Muna! Unfortunately the real one is gone. Unbelievable! RIP to a great actor!
