The National Ambulance Service has denied claims that an ambulance belonging to Ghana has been offered for sale in Dubai.

This comes after some Ghanaian Tiktokers shared a video of an ambulance branded in Ghana colours at a garage of a car sales company in Dubai.

They claimed that the car found among other vehicles in the garage was also for sale for 115,000د.إ (115,000 Dirhams) or about $31,000.

However, the National Ambulance Service in a press release says the vehicle is not for sale as purported in the video, but that it is one of a consignment bound for Ghana soon.

The Ambulance Service explained that it is on the premises of the manufacturing company and would soon be shipped to Ghana.

“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,” parts of the statement read.

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 Service stated.
