The late Daddy Lumba and Prophet Francis Amoako Atta
The founder of Parliament Chapel International, Prophet Francis Amoako Atta, has opened up about a solemn encounter he had with the late highlife legend, Daddy Lumba, before his passing, revealing that he gave the ailing musician 21 days revelations about his days on earth.
Speaking in an interview on July 28, 2025, the renowned Ghanaian prophet disclosed that Daddy Lumba visited him in a severely weakened condition, unable to walk and confined to a wheelchair.
“When Daddy came to me, he couldn’t walk. He was in a very bad state. I gave him 21 days,” the prophet revealed.
The emotional revelation has stunned Ghanaians, many of whom had no prior knowledge of the legendary singer’s health struggles.
“Daddy has made such an impact that we need to celebrate him. When I met him, I immediately knew his remaining days on earth were only by grace,” Prophet Amoako Atta added.
Although the preacher did not disclose the exact date of the visit, he hinted that his friendship with the celebrated artist grew after the meeting, describing the rest of Daddy Lumba’s life as sustained by nothing short of divine mercy.
“Since then, I knew it was by grace. His rest of life was not about strength or medicine. It was grace.”
The family of the late Daddy Lumba released an official statement through his official Facebook page and confirmed by Daddy Lumba FM, his official media platform, confirming that he passed away in the early hours of Saturday, July 26, 2025.
“With profound sorrow and deep grief, the Fosu family announces the passing of Ghana’s beloved musical icon, Charles Kojo Fosu, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, who passed away earlier today, Saturday, July 26, 2025, after a short illness,” the statement read.
He is described as more than a musician, but a cultural icon whose music and lyrics profoundly impacted many lives, reflecting themes of love, struggle, dreams, and resilience.
The family has respectfully requested privacy during this time of profound grief.
Details regarding the funeral arrangements will be shared in the coming days.
“When I saw Daddy Lumba, I told him he had 21 Days left. When one’s work in this life is fulfilled, we should focus on their impacts”
