The Member of Parliament for Nsuta Kwaman Beposo, Adelaide Yaa Agyeiwaa Ntim, has appealed to the Parliament of Ghana to grant music and cultural icon Daddy Lumba a state-assisted burial.

The MP believes Lumba’s contribution to Ghana's music industry deserves to be recognised and as such deserves a national recognition in his funeral arrangements.

Speaking on the floor of Parliament on Monday, July 28, 2025, the former Deputy Minister for Health called on parliament to help come up with measures that will preserve the good works of the renowned music icon for generations to come.

She urged Parliament to join the residents of Nsuta Kwaman Beposo, Lumba’s Hometown to mourn the Loss of their beloved son.

Born Charles Kwadwo Fosu, the renowned music icon is known in the show business as Daddy Lumba.

He released his first Album "Yɛye aka Akwantuo Mu" in 1989 with Nana Acheampong becoming an instant hit.

The global icon went on to release over 32 albums, all becoming hits in Ghana's music industry.

The "Aben Woha" hit maker died on Saturday, July 26, 2025, causing a wave of shock in the country.

With many mourning with the family, the MP has said Lumba’s legacy will live on for time immemorial.
