Video: Cloths For Ebony’s Funeral Unveiled
The family and management of late dancehall artiste, Ebony Reigns, have unveiled the cloths to be used as the official garments for her funeral.
The cloths, which are three in number, according to the family and her management, are not for her funeral only but are to also be a part of her legacy.
Unveiling of the cloths took place at a short ceremony at the West Hills Mall on Saturday, March 17.
Ebony’s father, Nana Opoku Kwarteng urged all to purchase and use the cloths on any occasion for the memory of his daughter to live on.
“It’s unfortunate we are here today not for anything, to launch funeral cloths of my daughter, the queen, Ebony. How sad it is,” said the grieving father.
“It’s very unfortunate if you ask me but I guess we have no option. We are here to launch the cloths, they are beautiful to see. You’ll admire them for sure. It is in to stay, so to speak. And we recommend that for every occasion, patronize so that Ebony will forever reign. It is your support that will make this come true”. He said, stressing on the need for the public to patronize the cloths.

Her Manager, Ricky Nana Agyemang (Bullet), CEO of RuffTown Records, also added that the introduction of the cloth was in line with his artiste’s dream.
“We are doing this for Ebony Reigns. When she was alive, she was always with me. She told me most of the things she wanted to do. She wanted to have ‘Ntoma Collections’ because all the other musicians had casual wears. So it’s like a dream come true,” said Bullet.
The clothes are named after her songs ‘Maame Hwe’ which comes in two different types and ‘Aseda’, which is black and white.
Meanwhile, the final funeral rites and burial service for the late Ebony, born Priscilla Opoku Kwarteng, will be held on March 24 at the forecourt of the State House in Accra.
Prior to this is a tribute musical concert for the late songstress on March 23 at the Trade Fair Center in Accra.
The concert will witness performances from various top artistes. Some of them include; Sarkodie, Stonebwoy, VIP, R2Bees, Edem, Kofi Kinaata, Efya and many others.
