Victony shares health struggles, upcoming surgery ahead of tour

By Oluwapelumi Oluwayemi

Nigerian artiste Anthony Ebuka Victor, known professionally as Victony, has disclosed that he has undergone four surgeries and is scheduled for another one soon.

You might remember that in 2021, Victony survived a severe car accident that left him in a coma for four days.

In a recent interview during the Adesope live segment at the Afroland festival, Victony shared that he is still in the recovery phase following his four surgeries.

He also mentioned that he uses pain relievers before performing on stage during his upcoming North America tour.

“Honestly, I am blessed, and the world can see it. Even though I’m still recovering, I’m able to continue performing and I’m preparing for the tour,” he said.

“Looking back at last year and up until recently, I’ve had four surgeries and will need one more after the tour. Despite everything, I see it as a blessing, even with the frequent hospital visits.”

Victony also reflected on his situation, saying,

“I take pain relievers before going on stage and continue to record. I’m grateful for God’s grace, as it’s not by my own strength. I don’t consider myself his favorite, so I’m not sure why I’m so blessed.”

Recall that in February 2023, the singer announced a two-month hiatus from music following his third surgery.
