Also, in a post shared by EDHUD, they wrote, “Controversial marriage counsellor Cyril George Carstensen Lutterodt, popularly known as Counsellor Lutterodt, has been arrested and detained by the Ghana Police Service for allegedly inciting violence.
His arrest follows claims he reportedly made alleging that the body of highlife legend Daddy Lumba had been secretly buried at the musician’s residence in East Legon. Lutterodt allegedly urged Ga youth to storm the house with pickaxes to exhume the body without waiting for police intervention”.
Some X user reacting to the development stated, “He’s a Ga man who believes it is traditionally wrong for a foreigner to be buried on their land at a private residence rather than a designated cemetery, so he made a plea to the Ga youth to use the proper traditional channels to have the body exhumed.
Is making such a plea now considered a crime? I genuinely don’t understand this. Are the police now arresting people simply for speaking out or making statements? Can someone help me understand which part of the law criminalises this?”
“If true, then it’s an unfortunate statement from him. He’s always been controversial, but calling the Ga youth to invade and attack a private property is pretty serious.
Even if his claims were true, it’s still private property and he has the right to use it for whatever purpose deemed fit, provided the right permission is sought from the right state authorities.
Can’t tell what his motivations were, but such a call was far below the belt”, one X user added.
In related news, Victor Kofi Owusu, commonly known as Abusuapanyin Tupac, the family head of late Ghanaian Highlife legend Daddy Lumba, has asserted that the late musician was buried at his residence in East Legon.
According to Abusuapanyin Tupac, people are claiming ignorance about the burial site when they choose not to attend the singer’s funeral.
Abusuapanyin Tupac further confirmed earlier claims by Afia Schwarzenegger, who stated Daddy Lumba was buried at his residence in East Legon, Accra.
He detailed that Daddy Lumba was buried at his residence in East Legon in accordance with his dying wish.
Speaking in an interview with Ezra TV on February 26, 2026, Abusuapanyin Tupac questioned, “If you chose not to attend the funeral because you were upset about the court’s verdict, how can you now claim you don’t know where Daddy Lumba was buried? You can’t skip the funeral and expect to know the burial site.
They are lucky that Afia Schwarzenegger made the location of Lumba’s burial known publicly, so saying you don’t know where he was buried is a lie,” he said.
