Highlife living legend Charles Kwadjo Fosu also known as Daddy Lumba (DL) has paid a touching tribute to the late Kwasi Brenya, General Manager of Despite Group of Companies, whose sudden death occurred on Tuesday afternoon.

DL, who spoke to Chairman Kwami Sefa Kayi, this morning on Peace FM’s “Kokrokoo” morning show and later with Kwame Nkrumah Tikese on OkayFM's "Ade Akye Abia" programme, said he heard the unfortunate news while he was watching UTV's breakfast show “Adehye Nsroma” and was very saddened by it.

“I saw the news on UTV this morning and I am so sad that my own former Manager Kwasi Brenya has passed on”.

Recollecting how he met Kwasi Brenya, Ghana's Highlife Legend said he first met him during the early days of Peace FM's transmission, "so i know him very well and he was a very good man”.

Lumba expressed his condolence to family members and workers of Despite Group of Companies.

“Condolence to the family of Kwasi Brenya especially his wife and kids, I say demirifa due. I will urge all of us to come together and give him a befitting burial and keep his legacy alive,” DL said.

The "Yentie Obia" crooner said Kwasi Brenya's name should not be missing on our lips of people in the music industry for the wonderful job he did.

Describing his former manger as a "humble, truthful and committed" person on OkayFM, DL simply could not hold himself together and struggled to choke back his tears in the course of the interview as he recalled some nostalgic memories the two shared together. 

Kwasi Brenya managed Daddy Lumba for over two decades of his 30 years musical career.

Other musicians including Amakyi Dede, Kaakyire Kwame Appiah among others also paid tribute to the late Kwasi Brenya on the same platform.

Mr. Kwesi Brenya passed on to glory on Tuesday afternoon May 5 2015 at the 37 Military hospital after a short illness.
