Acknowledging Stormzy’s actions, Daddy Lumba wrote, “I am immensely touched by Stormzy’s homage to me last night at the Global Citizen Festival.”

“I would like to take this opportunity to share my gratitude and appreciation for the public display of love. To say that the gesture was heartwarming and humbling is an understatement.”

“Thank you very much,” he added.

Meanwhile, this is Stormzy’s first time performing in Ghana.
