Evangelist and former highlife musician Papa Shee has dismissed reports that Daddy Lumba’s funeral will take place on December 13, insisting the date is not feasible for the family.
Speaking on UTV’s United Showbiz, Papa Shee revealed that the family has proposed March 14, 2026, as a more suitable date.
He said he was not part of the earlier discussions held at the Manhyia Palace because he was in Accra at the time, and that upon his return, the family unanimously agreed that December 13 would not work.
“When I came back and met the family, they explained that the 13th December date would not help them. So we all agreed that the funeral should be moved to March,” he said.
He added that the family will officially meet with the Manhyia Palace to communicate the proposed new date. “We will meet Manhyia again officially to discuss it. We cannot just accept a date that won’t work for the family,” he stressed.
Papa Shee’s remarks have deepened public uncertainty, as they contradict the December 13 date reportedly approved by Manhyia. Critics argue that the conflicting announcements risk undermining the late musician’s dignified image.
The final decision is expected after the family’s next meeting with Manhyia.
