''I will die very soon”...Natty Of The 'New Masquerade' TV Series

Remember Natty of the popular TV series: New Masquerade...yes that's him. Mr. Romanus Uchenna Amuta aka Natty is now a shadow of his old self. Stroke caught up with him in 2006, and left him bedridden. When he miraculously managed to regain his steps in 2010', he could only manage to limp, as the right side of his body had gone numb. 

Currently, he is almost a vegetable. Reason: he is slowly losing his memory of past events, old friends and his surroundings...he only struggled in slurred and un-coordinated speech to narrate the story of his life as a stroke patient.

In his words:

“If government does not come to help me now, then I will die very soon,”

“Even the best clothes in my wardrobe were bought in 1984 when I made some reasonable money working with Daily Times Newspaper as an Advert Representative in Enugu. Since then, to buy even pant na war,”

'I am optimistic. A few good players have arrived here and I am happy with the trust Harry Redknapp has in me. 

'The last few results have given us a chance to stay up. I don’t think the owners will bring in so many players if they don't think it will happen. I hope West Brom are happy with what they will get and they hope to get players.'

But furious Albion quickly made it clear there was no agreement between the clubs.
