The National Ambulance Service has denied claims on social media suggesting an ambulance belonging to the government of Ghana has been sold in Dubai.
A statement issued by the National Ambulance Service said the ambulance in question is one of the 26 Toyota Hiace Ambulances being procured by the government, through the Ministry of Health and being funded by the World Bank.
“The ambulance in question is one of the 26 Toyota Hiace Ambulances being procured by the Government, through the Ministry of Health and being funded by the World Bank. It is therefore not true that the ambulance is there for sale.
“The ambulance service indicated that “the manufacturing processes are over and very soon the ambulances will be shipped into Ghana.
“We, therefore, entreat the general public to disregard the video in circulation and commentary made by the person who made the video,” the statement said.
