Speaking on the Ekosii Sen radio programme on Accra-based Asempa FM, she said Dr. Bawumia couldn’t propose directly when they first met.
“We [me and Dr Bawumia] met years later... we met through mutual friends," Samira said, adding that it was love at first sight.
She said Dr. Bawumia was attracted to her the moment they first met and concluded he had met "a catch".
According to her, Dr. Bawumia had to beat about the bush, but she already suspected that he was interested in her.
Samira was on the show to discuss issues pertaining to the International Women's Day (IWD), which was marked on Sunday.
