"She was crying so much when she called me to inform that her son, had passed on," he said.

The blogger clarified that it was not Miller, but Kofi, the dark-complexioned and taller of her sons. Miller Adu Atakora, the most popular of Daddy Lumba's nephews because of his striking resemblance to his uncle, is the first child of Lumba's younger sister.

Daddy Lumba's nephew passes months after him

The news of the passing of Faustina Fosu's second son comes as her second significant loss in about six months. Her famous brother, Daddy Lumba, passed away on July 26, 2025, and was only buried a little over one month ago, on December 13.

Lumba's passing sparked a massive conflict within his family, particularly among his two surviving wives, Akosua Serwaa and Odo Broni.

Akosua Serwaa, who lived in Germany, was supported by the late singer’s elder sister, Ernestina Fosu, with their faction insisting she was Daddy Lumba’s sole legal spouse.

Odo Broni, the musician’s second wife, received support from the family head, Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu, and Faustina Fosu.

After Daddy Lumba’s funeral, which was boycotted by the first faction, Faustina Fosu appeared on social media in a sad state, seeking funds to help her amid her rift with her elder sister, Ernestina.

The passing of her son, therefore, has been tragic news.
