Muna Obiekwe’s Burial Arrangements + His Secret Love Life

aThe remains of controversial Nollywood star, Muna Obiekwe who passed away at the age of 36 on Sunday, January 18, 2015, is said to be presently embalmed at the Nigerian Naval Reference Hospital‘s morgue in Alakija, Satellite Town, Lagos.

Muna Obiekwe’s Burial Plan
An attendant at the morgue, who pleaded anonymity, confirmed that the body was brought in from a private hospital in Festac where the actor passed away on Sunday evening. It was also gathered exclusively that his corpse will be at the well-guarded Naval base until his family members will move it to St. Edwards Hospital‘s morgue in Obosi, Onitsha, Anambra State.

The actor is from Anambra State and the arrangements by his family members will see his corpse moved to his state of origin on Saturday, January 24, 2015. When Muna’s widow was contacted (who sounded quite young, well educated but firm and confident) on the phone, she refused to divulge her name or have any discussion whatsoever with the correspondent.

The attendant stationed at the morgue said the woman laid down very strict instructions that her name, contact or details be divulged to no one no matter the circumstance. Efforts to get the deceased actor’s wife to at least comment on burial plans or disclose her name or history of marriage to Muna proved abortive as she insisted on protecting her family’s privacy. The stand is not dissimilar to the late actor’s lifestyle as he was very popular, intensely controversial but reportedly very elusive about his personal life.



A number of his colleagues who do not want their name in print allege that Muna suffered in silence, to the point of death from Renal Failure. The level of compliance to Muna’s wife’s instructions at the Naval hospital’s morgue gives an indication that she either has a military background or one of the late actor’s relatives is connected to the military in a way. This is because it is very difficult, if not almost impossible, to embalm a corpse in a military health facility without being a personnel or having strong military ties.
Another sources claimed that the deceased wife is a sister to a retired general thus, he has been keeping the media away from her family with the use of the military.
Photographers are currently not allowed inside Naval Hospital in Satellite Town to avoid leaking his remains to the public.

Here are some "watery" facts (it does not rhyme with the initial) below about Late Muna Obiekwe a source who would like to remain anonymous shared with Naijapals:
- Late Muna Obiekwe was married and had 2 children who lived abroad.
- He lived alone in his house in Festac Town
- According to his doctor, he had been battling the kidney disease for about 6 years
- Muna was so private that even his close family members and friends did not know about his ailment.
- A popular singer and actress, found Muna Obiekwe bleeding in his apartment and rushed him to the hospital.
- Muna Obiekwe died in the car on the way to Avis hospital in Festac Town where he was pronounced dead at 3.30pm on January 18th, 2015.
- Although he lived a very private life, he was close friends with Muma Gee and her actor husband, Prince Eke.
- He was too ashamed to ask for help from the Actors Guild of Nigeria.

And Finally, Late Muna Obiekwe’s Secret Love Life:
Little was known about Nollywood actor Munachimso Obiekwe until his shocking death last Sunday, the first to happen in Nollywood this year.

According to ThisDay Nigeria, the actor popularly called Muna stayed away from publicity, and kept his private life away from his friends and colleagues. It came as a surprise to a huge number of the Nollywood denizens that the actor had a kidney failure. It was a known fact that Muna was a human chimney and was very generous with the bottle, however he kept his head when duty calls. For Muna, nothing could separate him from the bottle, not even the deadly fangs of kidney failure.

He wasn’t willing to compromise his epicurean nature for any ailment.  But the disease wasn’t the only thing the deceased kept away from the public. Since his death, his marital status has become a puzzle of some sorts. While it is widely reported that the late actor was married and had two kids in the media, some of his close friends maintained that the on-screen personality was never married but had a love child. Some even claimed that he had three baby mamas.

Obviously, the Enugu based actor was also generous with the women. Moreover, the deceased’s life was not void of sexual innuendoes, the most popular being the obscene picture of him and actress Biola Ige in the movie ‘Pregnant Hawker’. 
Muna’s mysterious love life is likely to be revealed only in his grave unless impostors go extinct.

May his departed soul rest in peace.
