Former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia celebrated his birthday on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, in a special way by covering the medical bills of several children receiving treatment at the Department of Child Health, Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
The charitable gesture was carried out on his behalf by a delegation led by his Special Aide, Akosua Manu.
The team presented over GHS 80,000 to cover outstanding medical bills and purchase essential medicines for children in various wards.
According to Akosua Manu, the initiative was motivated by Dr. Bawumia’s compassion for children, particularly those battling health conditions whose families struggle to afford treatment.
“Dr. Bawumia has always been passionate about children’s welfare. He believes that no child should be denied care because of financial challenges. This support is his way of spreading love and hope on his special day,” she said.
Nurses and ward in-charges who received the funds on behalf of the beneficiaries expressed deep gratitude to Dr. Bawumia and his team, describing the donation as a timely act of compassion that has lifted a heavy burden off many struggling parents.
“This support has brought relief to families who were unable to pay for their children’s treatment. It is a true blessing,” one of the ward in-charges remarked.
The atmosphere at the hospital was filled with smiles, gratitude, and heartfelt prayers for the former Vice President.
Many parents and staff thanked him for choosing to mark his birthday with an act of kindness that directly touched lives.
The visit, characterized by warmth and appreciation, underscored Dr. Bawumia’s long-standing advocacy for compassion-driven public service and his belief that leadership must always prioritize humanity.
