Singer Victony to undergo fifth surgery after ghastly auto crash in 2021

Nigerian singer Anthony Ebuka Victor, popularly known in music circles as Victony, has revealed that he is set to undergo a fifth surgery after surviving a ghastly auto crash in 2021.

The musician who made the disclosure during an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo informed that his legs still hurt after the accident that left him in a coma.

He stated that he looks back at the incident as a downtime in his life, and when it happened, he was frustrated because being in a wheelchair while shooting the video for his hit song titled ‘Holy Father’ was not what I wanted at the time.

Victony said, ‘‘I think about it as a downtime in my life, and when it happened, I was frustrated because being in a wheelchair while shooting the video for Holy Father was not what I wanted to do because I don’t like it when people pity me. After a while, I got over it, and now I live with remembering the accident.

‘‘Till now my legs still hurt and I’m still going to do another surgery, so now I’m living with it and I have accepted that experience. The accident has made me who I am today; it’s part of my story. I don’t want to be identified with the incident but I just want it to be a part of my story.’’ The musician added.
