She was one of the best things to happen to Ghana Music Industry. I feel she would have won a BET if she was alive.

As for the soldier, he was an unsung HERO we all overlooked. Every musician needs a security and this guy laid his life down.#RIPFranky#RIPVONDEE#EbonyLivesOnY pic.twitter.com/GxlJQwvyIi

Meanwhile, father of Ebony, Nana Opoku Kwarteng says he is yet to meet the only survivor of the accident that claimed his daughter's life.
In an inverview on Happy FM he said meeting the driver of her daughter’s jeep is the only way he can get the full details of what actually took place on the Sunyani road but all efforts have proved futile.
