Despite the gravity of the accident, Samira Bawumia remained unharmed and sustained no serious injuries.<\/p>\n

However, it is reported that one Fuseini, the bodyguard of the second lady, lost his life in the accident. Fuseini has been with the Bawumia\u2019s since 2008.<\/p>\n

Mourners gathered on Sunday morning, January 14, 2024, to pay their respects at the funeral service for Alhassan, who until his demise remained a dedicated member of Samira Bawumia\u2018s security detail.\u00a0<\/p>\n
