To be a leader is one thing but to be a leader with style is everything and this is something Her Excellency Samira Bawumia knows too well.

If you’ve not heard of her, Samira is the second lady of the Republic of Ghana. She is the wife of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the Vice president of Ghana.

Our headline isn’t a bluff, Madam VP is indeed African to the core. From her style to demure, we can’t get enough of Samira’s African elegance.

No matter the occasion, no matter the time, you will hardly catch the second lady off guard without a touch of Kitenge.

She is the epitome of African beauty, a beautiful face blessed with an amazing body. And did we mention her smile?

As she walks beside her husband or whether alone, with her head held high, you see a confident woman who is comfortable in what she is wearing.

From bright, colourful and sparkling motifs that make her skin pop, to cooler silhouettes and neutrals, her pieces are picked and matched with precision.

And to complete her impeccable African prints and style, being a Muslim, you will not fail to notice the matching headscarves she always has on, which blend in perfectly with whatever she dons.

If you have no idea what style and class means, check out our favourite photos of madam VP in all her glory:
