The wife of the late highlife legend Charles Kwadwo Fosu, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, has paid a moving tribute to her husband, declaring that no falsehood or malice can tarnish the love they shared.
In a tribute read on her behalf during the final funeral rites at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi on Saturday, December 13, Priscilla Ofori, widely known as Odo Broni, reflected on the honour, dignity and joy her husband brought into her life, insisting that their bond stands as a powerful rebuke to every cruel accusation.
“My king, my protector, if your spirit still walks among us, then let the truth itself rise as our vengeance. Let the love we share be the fire that consumes falsehood,” she said.
“Let the dignity with which you held me, the honour with which you lifted me, and the peace you gave me stand as testimony against every cruel tongue.”
Odo Broni stressed that she would not allow negativity to define the memory of their relationship.
“I will not bow to their malice; I will not let their venom stain the memory of what we were. You treated me like a queen, you gave me a family, you gave me joy. That truth is eternal, and it will outlive every lie,” she added.
Acknowledging the enduring presence of her late husband in her life, she said attempts to wound her could not erase their shared truth.
“Though they seek to wound me, they cannot erase the truth that I was your joy, your peace, your chosen resting place. My husband, my king, though you are gone from this earth, you remain in my heart.”
Addressing mourners, she emphasised that the love they shared remains untouchable despite loss and adversity.
“Though I walk alone now, I will walk with the memory of your love, which no lie, no attack, no cruelty can ever erase. Let them speak, let them try, for the lion king still reigns in spirit, and his roar will forever protect the love we shared.”
