Obofour shares personal connection with Daddy Lumba

Reverend Obofour also shared a touching memory of the late musician.

“He once called me when I was being criticised online. He advised me not to respond to anyone. He said even though people had spread many rumours about him, he never responded. That advice has stayed with me to this day. I was deeply pained when I heard of his passing," the preacher disclosed.
He added, “Lumba has been a legend since the cassette era, right through to social media days. That alone speaks volumes. Abusuapanyin, stay firm. Don’t let any ‘mad person’ disturb the process. Give him a peaceful send-off. May God bless the judge who gave the ruling. This is what happens when a mentally unstable person is put on a funeral committee.”
