The Manhyia Palace has called on the public to ignore claims that it is involved in the burial and funeral plans for renowned highlife legend Charles Kwadwo Fosu, widely known as Daddy Lumba. In a statement released on Thursday, December 11, 2025, the Palace stressed that it is not participating in any preparations for the musician’s funeral and urged the public to rely solely on verified information.
This clarification follows widespread reports alleging the Palace’s involvement—claims officials have described as false and misleading.
