Daddy Lumba was sick for 15 years – Daddy Lumba’s bestfriend drops BOMBSHELL
Daddy Lumba’s best friend, Dwabeng Fosu, has opened up about the late musician’s health battle, which gradually led to his death on July 26, 2025.
According to Dwabeng Fosu, the renowned Ghanaian highlife musician with over 30 albums under his belt, sustained a spinal injury in his prime but ignored it until it was a little too late.
In an hour-long interview with BigScout media, he noted that the Ankwanoma hitmaker opted for surgery to correct the spinal injury; however, the musician’s health never returned to normalcy.
For 15 years, Daddy Lumba was sick and had to rely on medicines to sustain his health, per Dwabeng Fosu’s account.
He had been friends with Daddy Lumba since their high school days in Juben Senior High School in the 1980s and knew him inside out. Their closeness influenced Lumba to honour him in some of his hit songs, including Yentie Obiaa.
In the interview, Mr Fosu credited Daddy Lumba’s first wife, Akosua Serwaa, for helping Daddy Lumba immensely during his health battle.
“He had an accident, but didn’t pay enough attention to the injury. He was young by then and was in his prime. Eventually, the effects caught up with him. He was operated upon and had his spine replaced with metal. The operation costs $40k,” Dwabeng Fosu said.
“All the medications he had to take were administered by his wife, Akosua Serwaa. If not for her, Daddy Lumba would have died a long time ago. He could not even put on a shoe. The doctor had predicted that he was going to die soon. That’s why he composed his song, Makra Mo,” Dwabeng Fosu added.…CONTINUE MORE READING>>>
