Ghanaian highlife musician Kwaisey Pee has expressed concern over the ongoing issues surrounding the burial arrangements of legendary singer Daddy Lumba.
Speaking in an interview on Hitz FM on November 24, 2025, Kwaisey Pee stated that the misunderstandings surrounding the funeral are unfortunate, especially given the late musician’s iconic status.
Kwaisey Pee mentioned that the controversies have made it difficult for industry players to know how to contribute or participate in the process.
“Sometimes you don’t even know where to contribute because you need to be careful with what to say but it’s sad. Sadly, such a great man like this is no more and these things are happening,” he said.
Describing Daddy Lumba as Ghana’s `Michael Jackson’, he called on all parties involved to come together and settle their differences for the sake of giving the legend a dignified farewell.

“I called him our `Michael Jackson’. I wish they can sit and say they should squash all these things and make sure we put this man to rest. Things should be fine because it’s not good,” he shared.
Kwaisey Pee further cautioned that the current situation paints a wrong picture of Ghanaian musicians and could fuel negative public perceptions.
“It’s not showing a picture for us as musicians because people would get the wrong perceptions about artistes. They would just conclude that we live our lives anyhow so when we die is messed up,” he noted.
He urged Daddy Lumba’s family to take charge and work towards resolving the issues.
“The family should just sit up and make sure they solve the problems,” he added.
