Evangelist Papa Shee has disputed reports that the funeral of highlife legend Daddy Lumba will take place this Saturday, insisting that the family has not approved any such date.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Papa Shee stated that the late musician’s family expects the funeral to be held in March.
“To my knowledge, and according to the family, the funeral will take place in March,” he said.
He further alleged that an attempt by some relatives and planners to present drinks and invitations at the Manhyia Palace on Wednesday was rejected.
“Yesterday they went to the Manhyia Palace and they were turned away. How can they proceed with the funeral if their drinks and invitations were rejected?” he questioned.
Papa Shee also claimed that the planning committee previously set up for Daddy Lumba’s funeral has long been dissolved, suggesting that no official body is currently mandated to organise the ceremony.
“The so-called funeral committee has been dissolved. The planning committee for Daddy Lumba’s funeral was dissolved long ago, so who exactly is claiming to plan the funeral now?” he asked.
