Daddy Lumba: Akosua Serwaa sues Odo Broni

Daddy Lumba's first wife, Akosua Serwaa, filed a lawsuit at the Kumasi High Court on October 3, 2025, seeking an injunction on his impending funeral and a declaration that she was his only legal wife.

Defendants in the case included the late singer's second wife, Odo Broni, and his family head, Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu.

Akosua Serwaa alleged that she had been sidelined throughout the funeral preparations for her late husband.

She asked the court to declare her as the sole legal spouse of the late legend and to stop Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu from dealing with Odo Broni as Daddy Lumba's second wife.

The court dismissed the injunction application, while the substantive case of who should be recognised as the musician's lawful wife commenced on November 17.

Below is a TikTok video of Odo Broni's lawyers speaking after successfully quashing the attempt to halt Daddy Lumba's funeral.
