Ghanaian highlife legend Daddy Lumba’s two wives faced off at the Kumasi High Court after his death to determine who should be recognised as his legal wife.
Akosua Serwaa Fosuh, who married the musician in a traditional ceremony in 1991 and a German civil wedding in 2004, filed a lawsuit seeking to be declared the legend’s sole legal wife.
The late legend’s second wife, Odo Broni, and his family head, Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu, were the defendants in the case.
On November 29, 2025, the court ruled that Akosua Serwaa failed to prove she married Daddy Lumba under German civil law in 2004, declaring that both women are spouses of the late musician.
Akosua Serwaa’s lawyer speaks on appeal
After the case, reports emerged on social media that the late musician's first wife planned to contest the judgment at the Court of Appeals in Kumasi.
In a video released on December 1, 2025, a few days after the ruling, Akosua Serwaa thanked all her supporters and hinted that she was headed for an appeal.
“This is Akosua Serwaa Fosuh speaking to give thanks to you all. I never knew I had so many lovers, but you have shown me true love. You have all fought hard for me, so I go on my knees to thank you all. Let us remain united, and victory would arrive,” she said.
