It has been alleged that comedian Reign embezzled some of the money that was collected on behalf of comedian Eddy Dee, who succumbed to cancer.

According to the family and friends, Reign had bad intentions when he positioned himself as the contact person on behalf of Eddy Dee.

Some well-wishers sent money to Reign but Eddy Dee die before Reign could deliver the cash.
 
Eddy Dee is said to have died cursing him for holding onto his money amounting to Ugx 200,000.

Shameful Reign has explained that he delayed submitting the money because he allegedly lost his national ID. He couldn't withdraw money via telegram. This slowed down the whole process.
