“Akosua Serwaa told the family at a meeting the she wanted to be the only woman who would perform the widowhood rites as demanded by culture. As for me, I did not see anything wrong with her request because I know her as my brother’s legal wife.”
“They wanted to do the funeral without me, Akosua Serwaa and his children who are abroad.”

When she was asked to explain why she is demanding to know the cause of death of Daddy Lumba, she said there have been different stories, so she wants to know the actual cause.

“For someone like Charles, he cannot die just like that. He is my brother, and his death has really affected me. We used to do everything together. However, when he passed people were just thinking about his properties. I need to know the actual cause of death before we bury my brother.”
