Several of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II’s subchiefs, who heard the ongoing case between Ernestina Fosuh and Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu on his behalf, made the decision at the November 10 meeting.
Ernestina Fosuh invoked Otumfuo’s great oath against her uncle, Daddy Lumba’s family head, Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu, after appearing in court on October 31, 2025.
The great oath, which is rarely invoked, is a last resort for Asantes who feel they are suffering a great injustice.
Ernestina Fosuh resorted to it after all efforts to get her brother’s funeral postponed until an autopsy was conducted fell on deaf ears.
Daddy Lumba’s funeral postponed
Following her invocation of the great oath, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, via his subchiefs, summoned all interested parties to Manhyia Palace for the case to be resolved.
At the latest meeting on November 10, several decisions were taken in favour of Ernestina Fosuh and against Abusuapanin Kofi Owusu.
According to reports, the first victory for Ernestina Fosuh was the postponement of Daddy Lumba’s funeral, which would no longer be held on December 6.
Otumfuo’s subchiefs also reportedly ordered a new autopsy to be conducted on the late musician to uncover what led to his death.
Finally, the funeral committee, which was compiled of several ‘outsiders’ such as Daddy Lumba’s manager, Roman Fada, and former legislator Collins Owusu Amankwah, was dissolved.
