God used (the late) Sunny Okosun to raise the alarm and the power was switched off.\u201d He said.<\/p>\n<p>See some excerpts from the interview below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Many know you as an energetic musician in your youthful years. Would you say turning 80 has changed that?<\/strong><br \/>\nNothing has changed. I am still as fit as a fiddle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the most memorable events of your childhood you can never forget?<\/strong><br \/>\nI remember flying kites, going to swim at Ikpoba River in Benin City, shooting catapults with precision and bringing down every bird within sight.<\/p>\n<p>I also remember making toys, including aircraft and cars, using foil paper from cigarettes to build the models, covers for tyres and a reward of \u00a31 given to me by a white man who saw my toy aircraft along our street. It looked like it was on a runway and about to take off in a windy storm. I made my first acoustic guitar with plywood, trap wire for the strings, sardine can openers as tuning pegs and bicycle spokes for frets. I also drew on any available papers at my disposal.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing his near-death childhood experience, Uwaifo said, \u201cI was once electrocuted during a show in Warri, Delta State, in 1969, at Lido Nightclub.<\/p>\n<p>Sunny Okosun (God bless his soul) was in my band as my rhythm guitarist. I was trapped on the floor due to an electric short circuit during my acrobat display. But God\u2019s favour was upon me and I survived the accident. God used (the late) Sunny Okosun to raise the alarm and the power was switched off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many musical instruments can you play?<\/strong><br \/>\nI play several musical instruments like the classical guitar, electric guitar, flute, alto and tenor saxophone, baritone sax, soprano sax, piano and percussions. I write scores on a music manuscript sheet. I sight-read, compose and arrange songs. Music is a serious business.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that you can open your mouth to sing does not make you a musician, the same way playing street football does not make you a footballer and arguing does not make you a lawyer. You can speak English but that does not make you a journalist.<\/p>\n<p>Driving a car does not make you a mechanic or a pilot. You must train to become a professional. The young ones are too much in a hurry. The heights that great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legendary singer and first Honorable Commissioner for Arts, Culture and Tourism in Nigeria, Sir Victor Uwaifo, speaks about unknown aspects of his life.
