Victony’s Music Career Defies Adversity
Despite his life-altering accident, Victony’s music career continues to soar, with hits like “Soweto” and “Stubborn” captivating fans worldwide.
He said:
“Honestly, I am blessed and the whole world can see that I’m blessed. I’m still in the recovery phase but I’m still able to do this now; I’m about to go on tour.
“Thinking about last year, even up until recently, I’ve done four surgeries and after the tour, I’m still going to do one more. But it’s still a blessing, you know? Going to the hospital and seeing other people there but I go in and out and do my thing. I take pain relievers before I go on stage and I still record. I feel blessed and I thank God for his grace; it’s not by power. I’m not his favourite child so I don’t know why he’s blessing me.”
