The funeral of Ghanaian music legend Daddy Lumba will proceed as planned on Saturday, December 13, 2025, after an Accra High Court ruled that the applicants, including members of Daddy Lumba’s maternal family, failed to pay a required GH¢2 million security deposit.

The court had initially granted an injunction application to halt the funeral, but after the applicants failed to meet the payment deadline, the court ruled that the funeral could proceed. The decision has sparked controversy, with some family members expressing dissatisfaction with the outcome.

Daddy Lumba, who passed away on July 26, 2025, at the age of 60, was a renowned highlife musician and a beloved figure in Ghanaian music. His funeral is expected to be a grand affair, with fans and well-wishers gathering to pay their last respects.
