Legendary Ghanaian musician Charles Kwadwo Fosu, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, died on Saturday, July 26, 2025.
He is survived by two wives, Akosua Serwaa and Priscilla Ofori-Atta, popularly known as Odo Broni.
Daddy Lumba married Akosua Serwaa in the 1980s when they were residing in Germany, and she has been credited with kickstarting his career by financing his first album, Ye Ya Aka Akwantuomu, released in 1989.
Their marriage produced four children.
It’s unclear when he got married to Odo Broni, with whom he had five children.
Daddy Lumba’s death has sparked controversy between the families of the two over who has the right to be described as the late singer’s legitimate wife.
Supporters of Akosua Serwaa describe her as Daddy Lumba’s first and legal wife, who should be accorded the respect she deserves.
Meanwhile, supporters of Odo Broni claim Akosua Serwaa forfeited her position by staying in Germany for years while Daddy Lumba was sick and being cared for by his second wife.
Akosua Serwaa’s ‘sister’ blasts Odo Broni
The ‘beef’ between the two women has played out mainly on social media while they have remained cordial in person.
In a video seen by YEN.com.gh on TikTok on Sunday, August 31, an alleged sister of Akosua Serwaa slammed Odo Broni.
She claimed that Daddy Lumba and Akosua Serwaa were a perfect couple who shared everything until Odo Broni came into the picture.
She said both the singer and his new wife kept their relationship hidden from his legitimate wife, and even welcomed three children before she knew they were together.

Odo Broni’s alleged relative blasts Akosua Serwaa
In another TikTok video seen by YEN.com.gh, an alleged relative of Odo Broni was heard passing denigrating statements targeted at Akosua Serwaa.
While standing beside Odo Broni, he said that she had proven herself as Daddy Lumba’s true wife by standing by him through tough times.
"You can marry a woman, but the one who stays with you during troubling times, or the one who takes care of you while sick, is your true wife. Not the one who abandons you,” the alleged relative said.
While he spoke, Odo Broni stood by quietly, and at one point appeared to nod in agreement with what was being said.

Speaking with YEN.com.gh, Ghanaian blogger Adu Sarpeah said most of the drama ongoing now is due to Akosua Serwaa's failure to speak the truth to her husband over his actions while alive.
"I believe Akosua Serwaa erred in the handling of her marriage by failing to talk truth to power. Perhaps she was blinded by the stardom of Daddy Lumba to ignore his infidelity. Regarding the widows, Daddy Lumba's family heads have confessed to knowing Akosua Serwaa as the legitimate wife; however, it's unfortunate that it appears Odo Broni has the support of some nefarious actors to hype her over Akosua Serwaa." he said.
