[@johniwuh9316]

As far as I am concerned Sir Victor Uwaifo is one of the most talented, gifted, hardworking and successful Nigerians. Apart from being a musical genius with international repute he has also excelled in many other endeavors and facets of life. Kudos also to the interviewer for his professionalism and efficiency. His command of English language, articulation and fluency are remarkable.

[@WSRTCompany]

Your comment is amazing. Do you know his son is the producer of the Global hit song: Calm Down by Rema?

[@netecoDIY]

@@WSRTCompany I know about but him (Andrew vibz) but never met him. I worked with the ekassa, akwuete,mutaba,titibiti meastro back in the late 90s, the late legend was very much private when it comes to his immediate family members. People hardly know any of his children in person.

[@WSRTCompany]

@@netecoDIY You're right. He was pretty private. We interviewed his Son. Most people don't know late Sir Victor Uwaifo is his dad.

[@davidoyedele32]

My utmost regard for the legend .Prof.(Sir)Victor Uwaifor. I grew up listening to him and his music. The creator of the double guitar in my eye. The very best ever. He is our nigerian treasure. May God bless and continue to give you long life for us.

[@osayandebobbyiyamu4789]

God bless edo state with everything on this earth but i don't know were we get it wrong why is our ladies and men of this generation is not moving forward in anything them do we believe in Europe may god still bless us.

[@chrisdixiethekidgang5941]

Infact is a bit strange, but my own opinion to your question , where do we get it wrong?. If I may say don't u think this generation are embracing so much of the western system..?because our foreparents never take it importantly, just like now..

[@MrJoseph534]

what an introduction?

[@Zaramoku]

How could he not ask him about Mammy Water, what is the point of this interview?

[@12345618180]

I tire. I was waiting for that. The interview is incomplete

[@samuelilori8161]

There's one thing am not comfortable with about him saying dt he didn't have an existing musician/s then dt influenced his musical career. In life, somebody must have doing a thing that u might fancy and decide to go into dt discipline. I'm an artist today, and it was my art teacher in sch then dt influenced me. Fela was influenced by some great stars b4 him so also some great musicians today.

[@hannahokoyo7199]

mr correcter shup up your smelling mouth dat is y you are poor and have family problems idiot enemy of progress fool

[@Markks100]

Questions you didn't ask him. DID HE REALLY SEE MAMMY WATER? DID MAMMY WATER BLESS HIM?

[@itzbabaot6264]

Yes, mr victor uwaifo saw a mummy water in his village in Benin city.
