“As for this Abusuapanin, if you are looking for a useless family head, then it is this one. He takes delight in being on social media more than anything else. Was he appointed as family head because of social media? I don’t know, he seems to think he inherited Daddy Lumba’s stardom and now believes he can act like a celebrity since Daddy Lumba is no more. This is a family head who, less than 24 hours after Daddy Lumba’s death, went viral for speaking about his relative’s temperament. He was the one who started this disgraceful act.”

In a press statement, Akosua Serwaa, who described herself as Daddy Lumba’s legally wedded wife, said she was not consulted regarding his funeral.
She therefore prayed to be recognised as the legally wedded wife and also sought to bar Odo Broni from presenting herself as such.

At the time of writing this report, the video had garnered over 5,000 views and 29 comments.
