The Ghanaian media space has been filled with mixed reactions following the sudden death of Ama Broni – the lady who died immediately
after twerking naked on stage at a street carnival at Liberia camp, Kasoa on January 16, 2021.
Original Shana and his team have on several occasions expressed solidarity and sympathy to the deceased and the bereaved family respectively. Shana recently released a heartwrenching tribute song for Ama Broni. He and his team also promised to donate an amount of $1,000 to the family.
As it was reported earlier, the artiste and his management team donated an envelope containing an undisclosed amount of money to Ama Broni’s family. However, it was widely reported that $1,000 has been donated to the family.
The bereaved family in a recent interview expressed disappointment in the artiste for giving them $500 instead of the reported $1,000. According to Ama Broni’s mother, Esi Mansa, people think she is making money out of her daughter’s death and that is not the case. She also vowed to return the money, and then place a curse on the artiste for lying to the public.
But speaking with M-Bak De’General on Splash Entertainment, Omene Aso, Original Shana’s manager condemned the barrages of threats and insults being meted out to them by the family.
According to the manager, Ama Broni’s family received $500 but the journalist who witnessed the presentation advised them not to disclose the amount, but settle the difference privately with the family, of which both parties agreed.
“We gave the family $500 and promised to pay the difference later. We intend to collaborate with them to give Ama Broni a befitting burial – since she is a die-hard fan of Original Shana, but the family is frustrating us”, Omene Aso told M-Bak.
Budding artiste, Original Shana, during a performance at the aforementioned event, offered $100 to anyone who could take off their underpants and dance to his popular song “Yi Wo Dross” on stage.
Ama Broni who accepted the challenge by going completely nude, got electrocuted after dismounting the stage, and was pronounced dead at a health facility.
As monitored by MBak Media, Omene Aso also revealed to Splash Entertainment host that “Yi Wo Dross” hit maker has since the demise of Ama Broni, been bombarded with threats, curses and criticisms, and this has affected both his professional and personal images.
The artiste manager also responded in the affirmative when M-Bak asked if Original Shana is regaining strength after all the public backlash.
