Former Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has joined the nation in mourning the death of legendary highlife musician Charles Kojo Fosu, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, who passed away on Saturday, July 26, 2025, after a brief illness.

In a heartfelt tribute shared on his official social media pages, Dr. Bawumia described Daddy Lumba as “a pillar in Ghana’s highlife genre, through whom many great talents have been nurtured and introduced.”

He added: “His brilliant compositions and works have not only entertained but also inspired and uplifted many of us. His passing is indeed a huge blow, not only to the music fraternity but to the entire country. Samira and I extend our heartfelt condolences to his wife, family, fans, and the whole country.”

Daddy Lumba, whose career spanned over 30 years, was known for a rich discography that blended romance, social commentary, and Ghanaian highlife rhythms. With hits like “Aben Wo Ha,” “Yentie Obiaa,” and “Odo Bewu Dee,” Lumba became one of the most influential and beloved musicians in Ghana’s history.

As tributes continue to pour in from across the country and the diaspora, Vice President Bawumia’s message echoes the national mood — one of deep sorrow, gratitude, and respect for a man whose music became the soundtrack of Ghanaian life.
