During one live performance, Uwaifo was doing his thing with the guitar and the atmosphere was electrifying

Professor Victor Efosa Uwaifo is indeed out of this world. He is a Professor of Arts, a Platinum winner, business tycoon,administrator and a proud Bini man. As the Guitar Boy turned 80 on March 1, 2021, one man that must not be forgotten is Sonny Okosun.
I watched Sir Uwaifo perform at the University of Benin auditorium during my undergraduate days in the 1980s. Sure, he is a special one, a real entertainer not just a guitarist. He would have exited Planet Earth long before his 80th birthday. And that would have been on stage during a performance.
