I’m not responsible for Ebony’s death – Father

Father of late dancehall artiste and posthumously crowned Vodafone Ghana Music Awards Artiste of the Year Ebony has slammed critics for saying he sacrificed his daughter for rituals.

In an interview with Accra-based Onua 95.1 FM’s Emmanuel Agyemang on Anigye Mmre, Nana Opoku Kwarteng stated that he is a Christian and a member of Assemblies of God Church and cannot do such a thing.

“How can I be responsible for Ebony’s death? Am I God? Nobody will have a daughter like [Ebony] and will be responsible for her death,” he stated.

The father of the celebrated songstress also responded to his choice of coffin for her burial.

According to him, his decision to select a black coffin has no spiritual connotations.

The black coffin looks so nice, he said. That is why he chose it.

He also denied reports that he is an occultist.

The late dancehall artiste born Priscilla Opoku Kwarteng was named the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards’ Artiste of the Year 2018.

Ebony Reigns died in a gruesome road accident on February 8 on the Sunyani-Kumasi road.
