Nigerian singer Victony recently opened up about how his parents came to understand the seriousness of his music career following a life-threatening car accident in 2021. During an interview on Sway’s Universe, Victony shared that his family initially saw his music as just a hobby and didn’t expect him to pursue it seriously. It wasn’t until he was in university that he began dedicating more time to his music, but his parents still didn’t realize the extent of his commitment.
This changed after the 2021 car accident, which left Victony in a coma for four days and confined to a wheelchair for a year. The overwhelming number of people who visited him in the hospital surprised his parents, revealing to them the impact he had already made in the music community. It was at this point that his parents fully recognized his dedication to music and gave him their blessings to continue pursuing his career.
The accident was a pivotal moment in Victony’s life, not only deepening his family’s understanding of his passion but also marking a significant chapter in his journey as an artist.
