He was 60 years old.

The announcement was made in a heartfelt press release by the Fosu family through their legal representative, Fati Ali Yallah, Esq. of Baba Jamal & Associates.

The statement described Lumba as more than a musician — a cultural icon whose music served as the emotional soundtrack of Ghanaian life for decades.

“His soulful voice provided the soundtrack to our love stories, and his poignant lyrics captured the poetry of our struggles, dreams, and resilience,” the family shared in the statement.

Daddy Lumba’s impact on the Ghanaian music scene is immeasurable. With over 30 albums to his name and a legacy that spans highlife, gospel, and love ballads, his influence shaped the soundscape of Ghana from the 1980s through the 2020s.

He was not only a performer but also a mentor to many up-and-coming artists, helping shape the careers of some of the country’s biggest stars.

Fans, fellow musicians, and public figures across the country have begun pouring in their tributes on social media, expressing deep sorrow over the passing of a man many considered the voice of a nation.

The family has requested privacy as they grieve, and details of funeral arrangements are expected to be released in the coming days.

Daddy Lumba’s legacy, however, is assured — not just in the records he left behind but in the hearts of the people he inspired.
