Controversial dancehall artiste, Ebony was returning from Sunyani in the Brong Ahafo region to visit her mother who had returned to Ghana from the United Kingdom for holidays.
Ebony was in the company of a friend, her driver and her bodyguard who was a soldier when the accident occurred.
Only the driver has survived and is in critical condition at the hospital.
Reacting to the issue, Nana Kwarteng said he spoke to her “queen” (Nana Hemaa) before her fatal trip from Accra Wednesday and expressed worry about her late travel.
“…she was a queen to me, that’s why from day one, she was named Ohemaa, and the title showed her personality”
The distraught father described his departed daughter as someone who had unique musical talents with a bright future.
“I supported her fully, I could even choose for her what to wear”, he said.
Nana Opoku Kwarteng prayed for his daughter soul and hoped she wins the Artiste of the Year ahead of the Ghana Music Awards.
Ebony Reigns, was scheduled to perform at a show in Belgium on 17 February and later continue with her first European tour.
