Checks at the Probate and Administration Division of the High Court in Accra have confirmed that no will belonging to the late highlife musician Charles Kwadwo Fosu, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, is on record, deepening uncertainty around the future handling of his estate.
The search was carried out as part of legal steps linked to the administration of the musician’s assets. It was intended to establish whether Daddy Lumba had formally deposited a will with the court, as well as to identify when such a document might have been filed, who presented it, and which lawyer acted on his behalf.
Registry records indicate that the request, submitted by undisclosed individuals and bearing the insignia of Maame Tiwa, a leading figure within Team Legal Wives, produced no evidence of any testamentary filing. In an official response dated January 19, 2026, the registry stated clearly that no will registered in Daddy Lumba’s name exists in its records.
That position was formally validated by the Registrar of the Probate and Administration Division, whose signature and stamp on the document confirm that the court has no will from the late artiste on file.

While the Accra search has drawn a blank, related legal proceedings are unfolding in Kumasi. Akosua Serwaa, described as Daddy Lumba’s widow, has applied to the Kumasi High Court for letters of administration to take charge of the management and distribution of his estate.
Her move has, however, been met with resistance. Odo Broni has lodged a caveat challenging Serwaa’s application, arguing that she cannot legitimately claim to be the sole surviving spouse and therefore does not have the legal standing to apply on her own.
The caveat maintains that the acknowledged presence of another spouse nullifies any unilateral effort to assume control of the estate without a prior determination by the court.
As a result, Serwaa’s application has been put on hold, with the administration process paused until the court resolves questions surrounding capacity and entitlement.
The report was first published by GhanaWeekend.
