SINGER SPANNER BANNER CUTS HIS LOCKS “I AM GETTING CLOSER TO GOD!”

By Chad Bryan—

International reggae recording artist Spanner Banner has sheared his locks and has declared that he is moving closer to serving God.

The artist revealed this in a more-than-nine-minute video posted on his official Facebook fan page, explaining that it was as a result of a number of trials that led him to his decision.

A press release sent to THE STAR has also substantiated the elements of the video.

“I have been going through a lot, that sometimes I don’t even tell my family. A few weeks ago, I was in a terrible car accident. If you saw the accident, you wouldn’t believe I came out of that vehicle without a scratch. I have to give God thanks,” the artist said in a part of the video, which was then followed by crash photos of a vehicle the artist appeared to have been in.

The artist further revealed that even obeah threats were being levelled against him, along with lies persons have told on him and business ventures that have been ruined over the years because of unscrupulous individuals.

It is as a result of these events that he is turning to God.

“With my faith being tested for so many years, and my recent car accident, plus when I realised I could have lost my wife when she collapsed. I had to turn to the Almighty for guidance, because I know that the Lord works in mysterious ways, and only him can protect and deliver me from choosing to render evil for evil, because dem nah stop, an a God over Devil mi sey, because the Devil is a defeated foe,” the Life Goes On crooner was quoted in the release saying.

Efforts to contact the artist to get a follow-up on where he would go from here proved futile, as our news team was told that he was not doing any interviews now.
