On Wednesday, October 8, 2025, the late Daddy Lumba's family announced that the music icon, who died at the age of 60 in July, is scheduled to be buried on Saturday, December 6, at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.

YEN.com.gh has gathered some comments from social media users below:
Elizabeth Obeng commented:
"If I were Akosua Serwaa, I would not set foot there because Daddy Lumba didn't show his wife respect."
Emersyn wrote:
"The first wife will have a strong case if she decides to take the issue to court, customary or not, since she did an ordinance marriage with Lumba. She can stop any other person from doing the widowhood rites with her. Let's not use emotions to talk about this issue, but the law and the truth. Akosua Serwaa can drag this family to court, and she will win hands down."
Alberta said:
"Eii, the social media in-laws should come and listen. Obaa Tiwaa and co 😂😂."
