The Kumasi High Court, on Friday, November 28, 2025, declined to name Akosua Serwaa the sole legal wife of the late highlife legend as she had sought.

The judge, Justice Dorinda Smith, is reported to have ruled that Akosua Serwaa could not prove that she was Daddy Lumba’s sole legal wife, while Odo Broni was able to prove that she was married traditionally.

According to a Citi FM report, the judge was not convinced by the marriage certificate presented by Serwaa to support her claims of marrying under the ordinance with Lumba in Germany.

The judge further directed that the Germany-based Serwaa and Odo Broni, known in private life as Priscilla Ofori, be recognised as the spouses of Daddy Lumba and be allowed to perform the widowhood rites.

Reactions to Odo Broni's champagne jubilation

The video of Odo Broni being bathed with champagne has sparked many reactions. Below are some of the comments YEN.com.gh sighted.

"It's not about marriage or a certificate. She did something most of us can't do. Taking care of a grown sick man for that long, God bless her."

Tejay said:

"They didn’t say she’s not a wife. They said both are wives according to our traditional marriage rules. This is the best outcome for both of them. Even though I was supporting Serwaa, but remember Odo Broni also has the right as a wife with 6 children. Serwaa shouldn’t be selfish. What at all will she get from all this at her age? The best thing both of them should do is to bring love and unity among them so that their children will know they are one family. What they are doing now will bring divisions into their children’s."

HEIRESS tina said:

"I am not saying what she did was right, but why is it that all these years, Akosua never sued him for displaying someone as a wife. Why didn’t people tax Lumba, but immediately he dies, Serwaa recognises her place as a wife. Even though there wasn’t more to it, she would have fought this long ago."
