Kojo Ntim is a resident of Nyamebekeyre, a town on whose outskirt dancehall songstress Ebony Reigns and her colleagues died on February, 9, 2018.
According to him, he was the first person to arrive at the scene moments after the fatal accident.

“When I got to the scene, Ebony’s driver told me Ebony was in the mangled vehicle so we called fire service but Ebony and her colleagues died on the spot. Even after two years of Ebony’s death, nothing has changed. Just last week a KIA truck veered into the bush and I was the same person who went to rescue them,” he said.
Mr Ntim said though he would be happy if the potholes are patched, he would also call on traditional authorities to perform rituals to pacify the gods to end the rampant accidents on that particular stretch.
