Former Vice President of Ghana, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, was a keynote speaker at the 2025 Africa Business Conference at Harvard University in the United States of America (USA) on February 14, 2025.
The event, organized by the Africa Business Club at Harvard Business School, brings together influential leaders from across the globe to discuss strategies for Africa’s economic growth and development.
In a video shared on social media, Dr. Bawumia was seen approaching the auditorium of the event alongside his wife, Samira Bawumia.
He was accompanied by a young lady, believed to be an usher, while Samira engaged in a conversation with another attendee.
Upon entering a section of the auditorium, they were met and welcomed by several individuals.
A man, believed to be a friend of Bawumia, approached him for a brief conversation, exchanging pleasantries and asking how he was doing.
During their interaction, the man turned his attention to Samira and jokingly remarked, “You must be freezing. He is supposed to take off his coat for you.” Bawumia laughed off the comment, while Samira responded with a smile, saying, “Oh, I am fine!”
This year’s Africa Business Conference features some of the most distinguished personalities in business, governance, and innovation.
These leaders, known for their ability to inspire and drive meaningful change, will share insights on shaping Africa’s future. Their discussions are expected to impact thousands of lives by offering visionary ideas and solutions to key challenges facing the continent.
They say Dr. Bawumia went to Harvard Business school to do settings because the videos they’re seeing doesn’t show the crowd. Here you go. Your worst nightmare. So proud of you sir 🫡❤️ pic.twitter.com/hQKAGsnDVd
