The mother of beloved actress Suzzy Williams, Mrs Cecilia Williams, has revealed the mysterious circumstances under which her daughter died by vehicular accident on Thursday, September 8, 2005.

“They came to the house that morning – it was around 10, and Suzzy said she needed her birth certificate,” she recalled.

She said she protested, asking her daughter who the guy she was with was. Suzzy, 23, said the man was her boyfriend.

According to madam Cecilia, she did not like the man her daughter was with because of his “looks, the [way he was] sitting and the way he [was] looking at me”.

She said she categorically told “Suzzy, this guy is not good” and pulled her away.

In protest, she recalled, Suzzy said Edwin Eastman, 25, was better than her previous boyfriend Abeiku.

“I said no, no, no: Now you’ve met your death,” madam Cecilia recounted.

She said she told her daughter “not to go out” but hand over the car keys.

At this point, she insisted she did not like Edwin, adding “his fingers [looked] like a grave looter's” and warned Suzzy that “he’ll kill you in two weeks”.

Suzzy accused her mother of being “too superstitious”.

Madam Cecilia said she was not adequately dressed so she rushed in to get something appropriate only to return to see Suzzy and Edwin speeding off contrary to her instructions.

“And that [was] the end,” she lamented.

Madam Cecilia spoke to Evangelist Prince Adu Asare, alias Thank You Jesus, on No.1 105.3 FM’s Adom Mmere (Moment of Grace).

She said “before it happened,” she saw “the first accident that happened in Kumasi”. Suzzy came home with “the face swollen, bags under her eyes covered with blood”.

When “another one” happened, she vehemently beseeched her daughter not to drive.

“I beg you in the name of God, something is happening, don’t drive. Let’s fast and pray,” Madam Cecilia Williams said, indicating this was in 2005.

She said not long after this incident she had a vision while lying in a sofa one morning.

“…the thing was a crash – it hit a pavement and the car went side[ways] so I called Mr Williams,” she said.

As the sun set, “I was restless,” she said. They had called Suzzy without successfully getting through to her and she had not returned home.

Around “midnight, we had a call [from the hospital] that Suzzy had an accident in the night,” madam Cecilia noted.

She questioned why her daughter was taken to a fertility hospital, Lister, when there was “a polyclinic around in Labadi”.

She light-heartedly recalled Suzzy used to joke that "she would build a place for me so I'd make money for her doing fortunetelling".

Suzzy mother, Mrs Cecilia Williams, is of the firm belief that Eastman premeditatedly killed her daughter.

On Thursday, 15 March 2007, Edwin Eastman was sentenced to a fine of 12 million cedis (GHS1,200) or, in default, two years’ imprisonment for traffic-related offences which resulted in the death of Ms Suzzy Lebene Williams.

According to Deputy Superintendent of Police, Eric Amoako, who narrated the facts of the case, Eastman and Suzzy went on a drinking spree and the accident occurred because Eastman, the driver, under the influence of alcohol, lost control of the steering wheel of the vehicle registered GW 818 W.
