Former President John Dramani Mahama together with his wife, Lordina, on Saturday, March 20, visited the family of former Presidential Staffer, Sainti Kwesi Baffoe Bonnie to pay their last respect.
Accompanied by some members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the team visited the family to commemorate the 40 day passing of the business mogul.
Mr Baffoe-Bonnie popularly known as Baboo died on Monday, February 1, 2021.
Although it is unclear what the cause of death is, there were reports that he died after contracting Covid-19.
The business mogul graduated from the University of Cape Coast with a Bachelor of Arts degree in History before pursuing his Master of Arts degree in International Affairs (MAIA) from Ohio University, USA in 1980/81.
In 1995, he established the Network Broadcasting Company Limited; the company that operates Radio Gold, Montie FM and TV Gold.
He was later appointed Board Chairman of the Ghana Air Catering Services from 2006 to 2007.
Due to his background in international relations, Mr. Baffoe-Bonnie was again appointed the Senior Political Advisor to the then Vice President, John Mahama, during the Mills Administration, from 2009 to 2012.
From 2012 to 2016, Mr. Baffoe-Bonnie served as a Presidential Staffer and Senior Advisor on Political Affairs to the President of the Republic, John Dramani Mahama.
He was married with 3 children: Ama Aniwaa Baffoe-Bonnie, Kweku Agyeman Baffoe-Bonnie, and Kwaku Amoa Baffoe-Bonnie.
The former Presidential staffer joins the growing list of prominent Ghanaians who have died from Covid-19 since a surge was recorded in January 2021.
