Uwaifo’s work evergreen, didn’t die of Covid-19- Son

The son of the deceased music maestro, Sir Victor Uwaifo (MON), has described his father’s work as evergreen and that multi-talented people like him (Uwaifo) are hard to come by.

Goodman Uwaifo also debunked speculations that his father, who passed on in Benin on Saturday at the age of 80, died of Covid-19.

He spoke in Benin while in the company of his sister, Mrs. Evelyn Oghonmwen, insisting that his father died from Pneumonia complications and not Covid-19.

Goodman, the third son of the music icon, said the elder Uwaifo was rushed to the Stella Obasanjo Hospital in suburban Benin on Friday and passed on at about 4pm from pneumonia.

In deep distress, the younger Uwaifo, a pastor with Image of God Bible Ministry, Benin, confessed that he had yet to come to terms with the loss of his father but had been able to weather the storm because of his strong faith in God.
