Ghanaian highlife legend, Daddy Lumba, died on July 26, 2025, at the age of 60.
After his death, his two surviving wives, Akosua Serwaa and Odo Broni, have been embroiled in a battle over his estate.
Despite several court filings seeking to be declared the late singer’s sole surviving wife and to be granted power of attorney over his properties, Akosua Serwaa has been unsuccessful, with the Kumasi High Court failing to rule in her favour.
