A dramatic legal twist has emerged in the ongoing saga surrounding the late Lumba’s funeral arrangements. The head of the Lumba family has been granted leave by the court to file an injunction aimed at stopping a proposed second funeral.
The family patriarch argued that the second ceremony is unnecessary and could undermine the family’s wishes, prompting legal intervention to assert control over the proceedings. Court documents indicate that the move is intended to protect the legacy and final rites of the legendary singer.
The decision has fueled debates online and among fans, with some supporting the family’s stand while others question the need for multiple ceremonies. Funeral politics in Ghana, especially for iconic figures like Lumba, often spark public scrutiny, and this latest development is no exception.
Legal analysts note that the injunction, if granted, could set a precedent for how high-profile funerals are managed and how families assert authority over posthumous events.
