On Wednesday, March 25, 2026, Papa Shee and Akosua Serwaa, the first wife of Lumba, went to the court with their lawyer for the hearing of the case filed by Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu, also known as Tupac, to stop their planned second funeral for the late highlife legend.

This came after Akosua Serwaa touched down in Ghana ahead of the celebration of life.

Unfortunately, after the legal proceedings, the court further adjourned the case to April 23, 2026, bringing sadness to the hearts of the organisers.

Papa Shee spoke to the media, claiming there would be a celebration, but this time around, not for the late Daddy Lumba but for his first wife, Akosua Serwaa.

“We will celebrate Akosua Serwaa,” he announced.

Reactions to Papa Shee's change of plan

Below are some social media comments compiled by YEN.com.gh after Papa Shee announced the change of plan.

"I personally don't want to hear this anymore or see anything of this on social media. Akosua Serwaa and Papa Shee can go to Germany to organise the event, period.

Mally wrote:

"Why does he look pissed, though? The court is using delay to tell them no celebration of life. So it's better to shift who to celebrate. Maybe Lumba's corpse does not want to be celebrated. Lumba is stubborn, and God is supporting him."

Sandra wrote:

"Is he now the Abusuapanin? Papa Shee is doing too much."

Wisdom wrote:

"This issue is turning into another thing. I think some big men are behind all these."

Cobby wrote:

"They just do not want them to celebrate life. If they rule in favour of the other party, they know they will be asked to pay some money because of the clothes and all that, so the court intentionally adjourned it.”
