Daddy Lumba’s wife, children run to court to injunct December 6 funeral arrangements

Published

The direct family of the late highlife legend, Charles Kwadwo Fosuh, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, have raised issues with funeral arrangements circulating on social media.

According to a statement from the family, the supposed funeral date announced by Abusuapanyin Kofi Wusu and a funeral committee was done without the knowledge or consent of the musician’s immediate family.

The family described the situation as “deeply distressing,” especially for the late musician’s wife, Mrs. Akosua Serwah Fosuh, who reportedly learned about her husband’s funeral plans through social media.

The statement explained that since Mr. Fosuh’s death on July 26, 2025, there has been a deliberate effort to exclude his wife from discussions and decisions regarding the funeral.

The family described this as disrespectful and contrary to cultural and moral values.

It further clarified that Daddy Lumba was legally married to Mrs. Akosua Serwah Fosuh in Bornheim, Germany, on December 23, 2004, and under German law, a person cannot legally enter into another marriage while still married.

To prevent further confusion, the family has filed an injunction to halt all funeral and burial plans until proper discussions are held.

They also assured fans and supporters that official information on the funeral will be announced soon.

The family expressed appreciation for the love and support shown by the public and promised a respectful and dignified farewell for the late music icon.

Christians have been urged to demonstrate a living faith in Jesus Christ by allowing their confession of Him as Lord and Saviour to reflect in their daily lives.

According to the Kaneshie District Pastor of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana (EPCG), Rev. Dzidzor Nathaniel Affram, a genuine Christian’s confession should go beyond words and be demonstrated through obedience to God, love for others and service to the Church.

He made the call at the 40th anniversary remembrance service for the late Wesley Kwasi Kwadzo at the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana, Maranatha Congregation at Awudome Avenui in the Volta Region.

Speaking on the theme, “The Church Built on a Living Confession,” Rev. Affram said life would continually present challenges capable of testing Christians’ faith, making it necessary for believers to hold firmly to their confession that Jesus Christ is Lord.

He explained that accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour required Christians to live according to His teachings, stressing that their faith must be evident in their conduct.

“A living confession listens to God and not man,” he said, urging Christians to remain obedient to God even when faced with difficulties and pressures.

Rev. Affram further encouraged the congregation to care for vulnerable people and demonstrate concern for others, adding that such acts were practical expressions of Christian faith.

He also urged Christians to identify and use their God-given gifts to build the Church.

He said every member of the Church had a role to play and cautioned Christians against looking down on others because of their status or abilities.
