The Program’s Director of Hitz FM, Mark Okraku Mantey, has expressed disappointment in celebrated highlife musician, Daddy Lumba, for suing musician, Anokye Supremo for impersonation.
Mr. Mantey thinks Daddy Lumba did not have to go to court for the matter to be solved because he could have done so amicably without publicity.
Not long ago, Lumba filed a lawsuit at an Accra High Court against Kwame Anokye for professing to be his son and impersonating him to get gifts from people.
Lumba said since the name ‘Daddy Lumba’ was exclusively associated to him within the music industry, the defendant’s imitation and misrepresentation has affected his reputation, business and goodwill and the brand as a whole.
“He has changed the name already. So what’s the issue? If you want to kill an ant in your house, do you contact engineers to bring a caterpillar to kill it? Earth moving equipment to kill an ant like this is not fair. I don’t think he’s made money. At a point when he looks up to you… call him and talk to him…” Mark held.
According to Mark, he couldn’t fathom why Daddy Lumba would carry the issue that far when he [Daddy Lumba] is also a victim when it comes to stepping on others’ toes in the entertainment industry.
“Let’s assume that Shatta Wale did a quarter of what Lumba did. Media will always sleep on it because some people are untouchable. He has stepped on a lot of toes and I’m wondering why he hasn’t been taken to court. We give it to God…”
“A lot of people are taking the industry for granted. Some of you know the things he does and wouldn’t talk about it but if Sarkodie and all the others do it, you wouldn’t say it…”
“I have issues with him where when you call him to come and perform he can even diss you…” Mark Okraku maintained.

Well said uncle Mark,that so called daddy Lumba is a supreme cheat,I don't what to want mention names but to mention few, look at what he did to the late Obibini Takyi, Nana Acheampong, Felix Owusu even recently the Great Ampong none of these gentlemen took him to court but b'cos of his selfishness, greediness and arrogantly habit that has taken dominion over him he doesn't want the innocent and poor people to succeed in life.God will judge him drastically for doing that. Very soon his cup would be fulled up and the whole world would witness his infinite indelible disgrace. Lumba, Lumba leave the poor boy alone and go settle your indebtedness to Great Ampong. Shame.
Exactly. This wasn’t a court matter. The guy takes Daddy as his mentor sort of and looks up to him. He’s not even established yet. If anything you could have just called him. Ah well..
