“I was in coma for days” — Victony opens up on ghastly accident.
Anthony Victor, also known as Victony, has disclosed that the horrific accident he was involved in 2021 left him in a coma for three to four days.
The musician narrowly escaped death in a horrific vehicle accident in 2021 that resulted in one fatality and three injuries. Victony spent roughly a year in a wheelchair as a result of the event.
In the most recent Tea with Tay podcast, the singer discussed the painful experience.
The performer also shares details of his early days as a musician, his transition from rap to Afrobeats, the horrifying automobile accident in which he lost a friend, and nearly lost the use of his legs, how his life has altered since that event, valuing life, and more.
The singer also discusses his career path, going from an up-and-coming artist to a household name, collaborating with Burna Boy and other Nigerian celebrities, and a lot more.
Talking about the accident, he revealed that when he came out of a coma, someone told him that their automobile had been hit by another vehicle.
He said, “Just leaving the club, on our way back, I slept off. I was tired. That was like my first time outside up to that time. So, I slept off. When I woke up, I was in the hospital with my dad. I was like, What’s happening? Because my parents didn’t know I was in Lagos. So, I was like, “Why is my dad here?” And he told me I was out for like 3 or 4 days.”
He said that when he emerged from a coma, someone informed him that another car had collided with their vehicle.
He added, “I heard that the impact was from the back like another car hit us. The driver and the other guy at the front they were totally fine. We were two at the back, two at the front. So, the one beside me [at the back] he died while I broke my legs.”
