A Kumasi High Court presided over by Justice Dorinda Smith-Arthur has declared Akosua Serwaa and Priscilla Ofori, popularly known as Odo Broni, as the surviving wives of late musician Daddy Lumba.
Justice Smith-Arthur delivered her judgement on Friday, November 28 after hearing from five witnesses in a case brought before her by Akosua Serwaa, the supposed first wife of the late musician.
In delivering her judgement, Dr Smith-Arthur noted that Akosua Serwaa failed to provide evidence of a civil marriage with Daddy Lumba, known in private life as Charles Kwadwo Fosu.
With the judgement, the two widows will e accorded full rights as such.
The judgement puts paid to controversies surrounding the funeral rites of the late music icon.
Saturday, December 6 was originally scheduled for the final funeral rites but this was moved to December 13.
On Monday, November 24, immediate family members of Daddy Lumba raised concerns about the December funeral date, accusing Abuasapanyin Kofi Owusu of fanning the confusion.
