'We should stop the women who go to court to cause trouble; they are tarnishing Daddy Lumba’s image' - Vida Adutwumwaa

Media personality Vida Adutwumwaa Boateng is urging the family of the late highlife legend, Daddy Lumba, to put aside their differences and ensure a peaceful funeral.

Speaking on UTV's United Showbiz, Vida expressed disappointment over internal disputes and court actions surrounding the funeral arrangements, saying they're tarnishing Daddy Lumba's legacy.

Vida stressed that constant court injunctions and petitions, mostly filed by opposing women within the family, are creating unnecessary tension and overshadowing the true purpose of the funeral - to honour Daddy Lumba's memory with dignity.

"We should stop the women who run to court at the slightest thing. It's causing trouble and tarnishing Daddy Lumba's image," she said.

She also condemned Papa Shee's decision to announce a new funeral date, contrary to what traditional leaders and the family had agreed upon.

Vida is calling for unity, respect for tradition, and maturity from all sides, emphasising that Daddy Lumba deserves a peaceful and honourable funeral.

The family is urged to settle their issues quickly and ensure the funeral proceeds in a manner befitting Ghana's greatest musicians.
