Much is expected from the person who has more and Ghana’s Vice-President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia lived up to this when he began the year 2020 putting smiles on the faces of lepers and street children in Accra.
Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia enabled the joyful moment for cured lepers, who were drawn from the Cape Coast and Weija Leprosariums, while the street children were selected from the Soup Kitchen run by Christ the King Catholic Church.
''My family together with some friends and I started 2020 by hosting cured lepers, drawn from the Cape Coast and Weija Leprosariums, and the street children from the Soup Kitchen run by Christ the King at our residence in Accra,'' a post on Dr. Bawumia's verified Facebook page stated.
