According to him, he woke up in the morning only to hear the news that Ebony had died through accident.

Shatta Capo noted that after the news got to him he sought to find out from God if it was his plan but he found out it was not God’s divine plan.

“When the news broke that the girl or the celebrity had passed away through accident, I kept quiet. I went to God and asked God because I knew her (Ebony Reigns). When this thing happened, the first thing I did was to find out whether it was God’s divine plan for the lady and I found out that it wasn’t God’s plan for her to die”, he stated.
