The late Daddy Lumba’s first wife, Madam Akosua Serwaa, has publicly spoken for the first time following the conclusion of the ‘Serwaa vs. Broni’ court case.
In a viral video shared on social media, Akosua Serwaa was captured dressed in black attire and thanked supporters both online and in real life.
She also appreciated the love shown to her by Team Legal Wives and the husbands of members of Team Legal Wives.
Speaking in the viral video, Akosua Serwaa stated, “I want to first thank God, and secondly, all social media platforms and every Ghanaian, Team Legal Wives and husbands of members of Team Legal Wives, Papa Shee… the list is endless. You have shown me love and stood by me in these trying times”.
“Let us continue to walk in love. The victory is for all of us. The Bible says that those who put their hope in the Lord will not be disappointed. May God be with us,” she added.
Akosua Serwaa’s statement follows, the Kumasi High Court declaring that Akosua Serwaa Fosuh and Priscilla Ofori, popularly known as Odo Broni, as the surviving spouses of the late highlife legend Daddy Lumba.
The court presided over by Justice Dorinda Smith‑Arthur ruled that Akosua Serwaa cannot be declared the sole surviving spouse, as the evidence she provided did not affirm her claims.
During proceedings on Friday, November 28, evidence showed Odo Broni was customarily married to Daddy Lumba before his passing.
The court also highlighted that Akosua Serwaa was customarily married to Daddy Lumba, but rejected her alleged German marriage certificate presented as it was not an original certificate.
The court ruled that both Akosua Serwaa and Odo Broni are recognised as surviving wives of Daddy Lumba and must be acknowledged by the Abusuapanyin in the performance of the widowhood rites.
The plaintiff, Akosua Serwaa Fosu, was seeking a court declaration that she is the only surviving wife of the late musician, allowing her to have exclusive authority to carry out all widowhood rituals.
She was also demanding that the court restrain Odo Broni from falsely claiming to be the late singer’s wife.
Meanwhile, the legal counsel for Akosua Serwaa, William Kusi, has revealed that her client has ordered him to appeal the Kumasi High Court decision.
According to William Kusi, as a learned professional, he cannot align himself with decisions he described as scandalous.
Speaking in an interview with Dadzie TV on November 28, 2025, William Kusi stated, “I am a learned person, and I can’t align myself with decisions which are scandalous, and I cannot defend. I just spoke with my client, and she said we should appeal against it, and I agree with her. We will prosecute and appeal”.
“She said Akosua Serwaa was unable to prove that she married Lumba in Germany. In fact, she said something like, ‘As for marriage in Germany, it is proven by documents, so if someone claims by just word of mouth that they got married in Germany, it’s not enough unless there is documentation.’ She added that the documents we brought to court cannot be accepted because Akosua Serwaa’s and Lumba’s signatures are not in them,” he explained.
He added, “The most scandalous part of her statement was that she said we only went to forge some documents to claim it is a certificate, which impugns our integrity as lawyers. To me, it’s scandalous”.
