He added that he agrees with critics who believe the ‘Medofo Adaade Me’ singer needs the funeral organised by the state to honour people of national significance.
Speaking on Accra-based Univers radio, he said the family will not force government to organise such event for his mother but her mother's family would be happy if such a decision is taken.
The one-week celebration, according to the family, will be held on Friday, November 3 at Asante Banko after which the burial arrangements will be made public.
Awurama Badu died at age 72 and is survived by four children.
