Nigerian singer, Anthony Victor, popularly known as Victony, has disclosed that he was in a coma for three to four days after he was involved in an auto crash in 2021.
Recounting the tragic experience in the latest episode of the Tea with Tay podcast, the ‘Soweto’ crooner said only he remembered leaving the club and sleeping in the car but nothing about the accident.
Victony said "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 3 or 4 days.”
Victony in 2021 narrowly escaped death in a ghastly car accident that left one dead and three injured.
Following the accident, the musician was left in a wheelchair for about a year.
Victony said on the podcast that when he came back from the coma, he was told that the accident occurred because another car hit their vehicle from the back.
“The driver and the other guy at the front were totally fine. We were two at the back, two at the front. So, the one beside me [at the back] died while I broke my legs,” Victony recalled.
