Veteran singer Bright Chimezie who was born on October 1st, 1960 has said that it feels good to be born on Nigeria’s birthday.
The 61-year-old made this known in an interview with Saturday Beats, expressing his gratitude for witnessing another Independence anniversary.
“I feel good that I turned 61 yesterday. Thankfully, I am strong, energetic and my career is still blossoming. I am very grateful for my family. I have a song that says that in life, there are sweet days and also ‘unsweet’ days.
“I can’t detail the past 60 years of my life but I can say I am strong, bubbly and I have a peaceful life. I still dance and bounce when performing and the secret is that I have never done anything else outside Zigima Sound, which is my signature. I also try to fine-tune my brand consistently. The energetic vibe that people see on stage is natural,” he said.
Chimezie also revealed how he has been able to manage his home as an entertainer. He said, “It has been God all the way. Without being immodest, discipline has also played a major role. I was mature enough before I decided to get married. Women need a lot of attention, so I give my wife a lot of that.
“My late father was a cleric and I saw the way he treated my mother, so I copied a lot from him. If my father could keep his home, why can’t I do that? I married my wife when she was young and I have watched her grow. If a doctor can have a successful home, why can’t a singer have that too?”
