Historical Photo Captures a Pivotal Moment: Dr. Kwame Nkrumah with Abdulai Bawumia’s Family

In a historic photograph from 1962, a young Abdulai Bawumia is seen alongside his family, united with Ghana’s first President, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

The image was taken following a bomb attack on Nkrumah, a period of significant tension in Ghana.

Present in the photo are Abdulai Bawumia, his parents, Mumuni Bawumia and Mrs. Bawumia, at the Northern Regional Residency in Tamale, a testament to their resilience in the face of adversity.

It’s worth noting that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the current Vice President of Ghana, was born on October 7, 1963, just a year after this significant photograph was taken, marking a continuation of the Bawumia family’s historical journey.
