Accra — Controversial Ghanaian relationship counsellor and media personality, Counsellor Lutterodt, has reportedly been arrested following explosive comments he made about the late highlife legend Daddy Lumba.
The outspoken figure, known for his bold and often controversial statements on radio and television, allegedly sparked outrage after making remarks about the burial of the iconic musician.
According to reports, Lutterodt claimed that the body of Daddy Lumba had been secretly buried at his residence in East Legon, a statement that quickly spread across social media and triggered intense reactions from the public.
But the controversy did not end there.
In what many described as an extremely reckless comment, Lutterodt allegedly called on some Ga youth to storm the property and dig up the body if the claims about the secret burial were true. The shocking call reportedly suggested that they should go with pickaxes and exhume the body rather than waiting for authorities to investigate.
The statement sparked immediate backlash, with many Ghanaians condemning the remarks as dangerous, disrespectful and capable of inciting chaos.
Within hours of the comments circulating online and across media platforms, the Ghana Police Service reportedly stepped in and arrested the controversial counsellor.
Sources say the arrest was made on grounds that his statements could incite violence and cause a breach of public peace.
The development comes at a time when emotions are still high following the passing of Daddy Lumba, one of Ghana’s most celebrated and influential highlife musicians. The music icon, known in private life as Charles Kwadwo Fosu, built an extraordinary legacy with decades of hit songs that shaped Ghana’s music industry.
Since news of Lutterodt’s arrest broke, social media has been flooded with reactions from the public.
Some Ghanaians believe the police acted quickly to prevent possible unrest, while others say the controversial counsellor simply went too far this time.
Counsellor Lutterodt has long been known for making provocative statements that often stir heated debates in Ghana’s media landscape. However, this latest incident may prove to be one of his most serious controversies yet.
Meanwhile, authorities are expected to continue investigations as the public awaits official details on the charges he may face.
