Efia Odo denies being Lumba’s daughter

Meanwhile, Efia Odo addressed claims that Daddy Lumba was her biological father,

She stated categorically that the late singer was not her biological father, as many people had claimed.

“So I was gonna totally ignore this, but it's becoming too much. No. I am not Daddy Lumba's biological daughter. Actually, Daddy Lumba is everybody's daddy,” she said.

She explained that she once addressed Lumba as her father due to the fact that she believes he is a fatherly figure to all Ghanaians.

Efia Odo claimed that the video was then manipulated to make it seem that she meant he was her biological father.

“Somebody made a rumour from a video that I did when I was working on Questa TV, saying that Daddy Lumba is my dad. But then I said, I'm just joking. That clout chaser took my video and clipped it to fit his agenda that he was my father. But he was everyone's nurturer in a way,” she said.
