Give hardworking Bawumia best medical treatment – US-based Ghanaian professor

The State must ensure that the best medical attention is given to Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Kwaku Asare, a United States-based Ghanaian professor, has said.

According to him, Dr Bawumia is a very hardworking Vice President whose health condition must be given all the serious attention needed.

The Vice President has been flown to the United Kingdom for medical leave, the presidency has said.

A statement to that effect said, “Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, in the late hours of Friday, 19th January, 2018, left Ghana for the United Kingdom for medical leave on the advice of his doctors.”

“He was accompanied by the Second Lady Hajia Samira Bawumia,” the statement said.

Dr Bawumia reported to work on Friday, 19 January 2018 unwell. Commenting on this development on his Facebook page, Prof Asare said: “I am yet to see a public servant who works harder than the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. As such, we must provide him the best medical advice and solutions that money can buy.

“The government must be commended for the transparency in disclosing his health status and must provide meaningful updates to arrest any speculations and rumours.”
