"I heard on social media that the Vice Chairman (Collins Amankwah) was saying we were present so they discussed it with us, that is not true, it is false. The first time I heard was when we attended the meeting where the announcement was made.It was when we stated our purpose for the visit to the Jubilee House that the head of Daddy Lumba’s family, Kofi Owusu and Collins, made it known that it had been agreed the funeral would be held at the stadium in December. We got to know about it at the Jubilee House,” he said.

"Adding insult to injury was going into the public domain and giving the impression that some of us on the committee are irresponsible in our duties, suggesting that we knew about it and failed to engage our sister or inform her about what was happening. We didn’t know until we got there."

The video of Akosua Serwaa's brother offering clarity on some issues had generated a lot of comments and views at the time of writing the report.

"I see the resemblance with him, and it shows they are very humble, fair, and truthful in their statements. The problem lies on the side of Lumba's family. We pray all goes well and peacefully. Will there be a new date suitable for everyone soon?"

@franchescaasamoah3046 opined:

"Maa Serwaa looks exactly like him. Daddy, please do not take it out of court. Let the law take its course. Nobody should sit back and let anyone belittle them. God bless all truth speakers."

@blessinggoodthings3124 added:

"Please address the lady as Maame Serwaa because she is not your mate but old enough to be your mother. That said, I like the way you conducted this interview. I heard of you this week when you appeared on UTV."
