Legendary Ghanaian Highlife musician Charles Kwadwo Fosu, professionally known as Daddy Lumba, passed away on July 26, 2025. He died at the Bank Hospital in Accra at the age of 60 after a short illness.
The final funeral rites for Daddy Lumba took place on Saturday, December 13, 2025, at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi, Ghana.
Due to a family dispute between the women in Daddy Lumba's life, Ernestina Fosu did not attend her only brother's funeral.
Ernestina Fosu was supporting Akosua Serwaa, the first and legally recognised wife of Daddy Lumba, while the family head, Abusuapanin Tupac and Lumba's other sister, Faustina Fosu, supported Odo Broni, the second wife of the deceased.
The funeral and burial ceremony were spearheaded by Odo Broni and Abusuapanin Tupac.
Ernestina Fosu demands to know Lumba's resting place
This implies that Ernestina Fosu did not get the chance to see her brother laid in state or know where Daddy Lumba was buried.
Almost a year after his demise, Ernestina Fosu is pleading with the government and other prominent people in the country to help her find out where her brother was laid to rest.
"It is difficult for me to acknowledge that I will no longer see my brother Charles. It is even more difficult for me because I don't know his final resting place."
"If you were a mother and this happened to you, would you be happy? I have nothing to say except to plead with the powerful people in the country to let them show us where they buried my brother Charles, so I can speak to my brother," she added.
