Kofi Nti is a Ghanaian Highlife musician
Ghanaian Highlife musician Kofi Nti has debunked claims that Roman Fada managed late Highlife icon, Charles Kwadwo Fosu, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, prior to his demise.
Speaking in an interview with Nana Romeo on OKAY FM, Kofi Nti stated that the narrative being pushed by Roman Fada that he managed the late musician is false.
According to Kofi Nti, he does not know anyone who has ever managed Lumba, except for Mr Kwesi Brenya.
“No one has managed Lumba apart from Mr Brenya. Lumba is too big to be managed by Roman Fada, and he knows that. But because people are saying he is Lumba’s manager, he has accepted it,” he said.
‘I initially did not like Daddy Lumba’ – Kofi Nti opens up
Recounting how the late Daddy Lumba supported him with gigs, Kofi Nti noted that the legendary musician had a tremendous impact on his career.
According to him, Lumba acknowledged his talent and served as a significant source of inspiration.
“Lumba mostly invited me to perform at many big shows. Sometimes, he would allow me to be in charge of some of the events. After my performance, he would tell me I didn’t charge a bigger amount and that I should have allowed him to handle the negotiations.
“It was always a privilege to work with him because he barely shared a microphone with people. Apart from Nana Acheampong, Ofori Amponsah, KK Fosu, and recently Sarkodie, he didn’t share the same stage with many artistes. He took me in as a son, and I was always happy working with him,” he added.
