The family and management of late Ghanaian highlife legend Charles Kwadwo Fosuh, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, have announced a change of venue for his one-week observance.
Scheduled for Saturday, August 30, 2025, the solemn ceremony will now be held at Independence Square in Accra.

Originally, the observance was planned for the University of Ghana Stadium. However, the plan was altered after the La State Council reminded the family that a ban on drumming and noise-making had taken effect in the La Traditional Area on August 11, 2025, and will remain in place until September 5.
Since the stadium falls within that jurisdiction, council officials advised that the event be either postponed or relocated.
In a statement, the family expressed regret over any inconvenience caused by the last-minute adjustment.
“We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause and deeply appreciate your understanding and continued support,” the announcement read.
The one-week observance is expected to draw thousands of fans, fellow musicians, and dignitaries, celebrating the life and legacy of a man regarded as one of Ghana’s greatest musical icons.
