According to the Ga Dangme leaders, it is dirty to have dead bodies come closer to their deities.
Rev Ankrah further explained that the laws of Ghana and Ga Adangbe don’t allow Daddy Lumba to be buried at home, adding that Lumba’s family must pacify the gods.
Beyond the spiritual concerns, he further cited that burying a body in a residential environment could raise potential health and environmental issues.
Speaking on March 12, 2026, in a video shared on X, Rev Ankrah explained, “It is dirty to have dead bodies coming closer to our deities, and the spirits around us do not permit that. If you do that, you have to pacify not just the land but the deities and traditional leadership that have control over the territory where this body has been buried”.
“We will extend an invitation to the same family. Whether they have a family head or not, they appear here. If the body is removed from the soil, they would still have to pacify the deities of the land and the community. And then answer questions that we are going to put to them,” he stated.
