I appreciate the fellow feeling, love and best wishes expressed during my recent medical leave.

I am most grateful to the Almighty God for his mercies.

In particular, I thank President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, the Government, my lovely wife Samira Bawumia, my family, and you, the Ghanaian people, for the support.

My sincere gratitude also goes to the mosques, churches and individuals who in diverse ways interceded on my behalf, as well as the medical staff who discharged their duties in a most professional manner.

I have resumed work today, Friday, 2nd February 2018, to continue with President Akufo-Addo’s dream of helping build a prosperous Ghana. God bless our homeland Ghana.
