The road crash occurred in Kumasi on May 25, 2024, hours before the premiere of his movie, A Country Called Ghana.

“He has not been arrested. He has not been detained. There has been nothing from the police towards him, which we think is a bit awkward.”

Rev. Crabbe was also disappointed that Lil Win had not shown empathy or visited the family of the deceased child.

"He is rather out there through his PR saying he is a national asset. Who is not a national asset.”
“Everything that he must do to make sure that the mother and the father are completely fulfilled, we will make sure he does, and if the law will have to ake him to serve as a deterrent, we will do it.”

Caution to reckless celebrities

Rev. Crabbe also urged high-profile persons to learn the right lessons from this Win incident.
