but today, the Lord has caught up with you and you\u2019ll have to rest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That was when he narrated how his wife, Samira, had to seize his phones, saying, \u201cEven though there were nurses, she was the chief nurse and she seized all my phones and made sure I was resting and not trying to do anything else than rest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But Dr Bawumia said, \u201cI know and I believe that the hand of God healed me and so on my return I believe that as God says \u2018for all things we have to be thankful,\u2019 and I thought I should come here and pray for my successful healing and also ask you to pray for my boss, the President of the Republic, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Thanking all who supported him in prayers in those trying times, the vice president also requested for prayers for government officials, saying, \u201cIn all humility, I\u2019m here to say a big thank you to God for bringing me back in good health\u2026I was moved by the prayers across the country for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to him, \u201cIt made me realize that with God all things are possible and I\u2019m so thankful to you for everything you are doing\u2026please continue to pray for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 63 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Monday, 12 February 2018 Source: dailyguideafrica.com 2018-02-12 Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and his wife Samira Bawumia Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia continues to thank God for giving him yet another lease of life when he recently fell ill and had to be taken abroad for treatment and rest.
