Confusion over Daddy Lumba's widowhood rites

Since his passing on July 26, 2025, there has been confusion about who should be the rightful widow of Daddy Lumba.

The impasse landed in court after Akosua Serwaa filed the suit claiming to have been excluded from the funeral preparations for her husband.

In her statement of claims, Akosua Serwaa accused Lumba's family head, Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu, of sidelining her to the point that she only learned of the announced funeral date through social media.

She also dismissed the claim of Odo Broni, who is known to have six children with the deceased, being Daddy Lumba's spouse, emphasising that she [Serwaa] remains the only woman legally married to the musician under German law.

Lumba's family, in a letter signed by Fati Ali-Yallah of Baba Jamal & Associates, responded to Akosua Serwaa, stating that she had no authority to tell the family how to conduct Daddy Lumba's funeral.

Claiming that Serwaa had returned her head drink, and thus traditionally dissolved her marriage with Lumba in 2018, the family declared Odo Broni as the only legitimate widow to undergo the widowhood rites.

The court started hearing the case about three weeks ago. An injunction application accompanying Serwaa's main suit and supported by Lumba's elder sister, Ernestina Fosu, a.k.a. Akosua Brempomaa, seeking to stop Lumba's family head from proceeding with the funeral, was dismissed on Tuesday, October 28, 2025.

Akosua Serwaa's supporters accuse Odo Broni's father

At the latest hearing, the man described as Odo Broni's father appeared at court in the company of another man, described as Broni's uncle.

Reports on social media indicated that while passing by a group of Akosua Serwaa supporters, he heard something about his daughter that infuriated him. He thus confronted the lady who supposedly made the statement.

According to one of the ladies, Odo Broni's father crossed the road to confront them because one of Akosua Serwaa's supporters had insisted that his daughter was not married to Lumba before he passed.
