Interest has peaked even more because of the calibre of people who were present at the wedding ceremony.

From the first lady, Rebecca Akufo-Addo, to the second lady, Samira Bawumia, to various notable players in business, media, and politics, one would wonder who the couple may exactly be.

As a lawyer, he provides advisory services to a variety of clients, both local and international, as well as to a number of government institutions,” his bio read.

Manuel Sawyerr Esq., is also a board member of the National Petroleum Authority.

He also supported Lydia Alhassan’s campaign with motorbikes in the 2020 election period to show his loyalty and support to the New Patriotic Party.

The bride, Natasha-Rosalind, is also a qualified Barrister and Solicitor of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Ghana
