Mr Kofi Owusu Fosu, the head of Daddy Lumba’s family, has addressed the controversy surrounding the legitimacy of the late highlife musician’s marriage to his second wife, Priscilla Ofori Atta, popularly known as Odo Broni.
Months after the late music icon’s demise at the age of 60, rumours of an internal dispute between his two widows, Akosua Serwaa and Odo Broni, have been rife.
Despite contrary public claims from Daddy Lumba’s manager, Roman Fada, the rumours have persisted, with many Ghanaian netizens supporting the camps of both wives.
The alleged feud between Akosua Serwaa and Odo Broni has also created speculations about the late highlife musician’s marriage to his second wife.
Daddy Lumba’s Abusuapanin confirms marriage legitimacy
In a recent interview with Gossips24TV on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, Daddy Lumba’s family head confirmed that Odo Broni was legally married to the late musician following his own investigations.
He noted that he had to interact with the President and the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II before he could publicly share information concerning the funeral plans for the late musician.
He also responded to the backlash he received from some Ghanaians after he initially doubted the legitimacy of the marriage in the aftermath of Daddy Lumba’s demise.
“I had to ask around and verify. After my investigations, I was able to confirm that he (Daddy Lumba) had gotten married to her (Odo Broni).”
“I don’t understand Ghanaians. Because I said I was going to do my own investigations, they started insulting me, but God knows whether the things we say are truthful or lies or whether we have been bribed. What will you gain from taking money from someone to speak ill about your family?”
Mr Owusu also noted that Akosua Serwaa and Odo Broni would both perform the widowhood rites for the late Daddy Lumba before his eventual burial.
He also cautioned some Ghanaian media platforms, whom he accused of peddling falsehoods about the late musician’s family and inciting people to insult them.
