Controversial Ghanaian broadcaster Blessed Godsbrain Smart, popularly known as Captain Smart, has boldly reacted to the injunction filed by Akosua Serwaa, the first wife of the late music legend Daddy Lumba, seeking to halt his funeral.
On Wednesday, October 8, 2025, the family of the late highlife icon announced that Daddy Lumba, who passed away in July at age 60, would be laid to rest on Saturday, December 6, at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.
The announcement, made by family spokesperson and former Manhyia North MP Collins Amankwah, also outlined detailed plans for the funeral ceremony.
However, shortly after the announcement, reports surfaced that Akosua Serwaa had filed a court injunction against the family head, Victor Kofi Owusu Boahene, Transitions Funeral Home, and Odo Broni, Lumba’s alleged second wife.
Reacting to the legal development, Captain Smart, during his Onua Maakye show on Friday, October 10, declared that nothing and no one could prevent the funeral from taking place.
“Daddy Lumba’s funeral will be held on December 6. No one can stop it from happening,” he said emphatically.
The outspoken presenter further dared any court bailiff or officer to attempt serving injunction papers at the funeral grounds, warning that such an act would not succeed.
He added that the presence of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the Asantehene, would make it impossible for anyone to disrupt the ceremony.
“If you are a bailiff and you see Otumfuo sitting under his palanquin at the funeral, bring the court injunction. Bring it there—we will be waiting for you,” Captain Smart said.
His comments have since sparked mixed reactions online, with some backing his bold defense of the planned funeral, while others criticized him for disregarding the court process.
A video of Captain Smart issuing the warning to Akosua Serwaa and the court has since gone viral on social media.
