Social media users have reacted to a viral video that captures a group of workers using one of the country’s ambulances as a pickup truck to transport cement bags.
In a video sighted by Myjoyonline.com, two men, believed to be workers at a cement shop, were captured busily packing the bags into the ambulance.
Also, a middle-aged man, clad in a pink Lacoste with a bald head, was seen directing people to pack the cement into the ambulance.
Seen the National Ambulance that's been used to transport bags of cement.

And I'm thinking may be a committee will be set to look into this. There the culprit may be able to justify why the cement required an emergency evacuation
The video comes barely two weeks after a 12-year-old boy died at the Battor Catholic Hospital over the delay of an ambulance to transfer him to the 37 Military Hospital.
This has, therefore, generated massive reactions from a section of Ghanaians who took it to their timeline to vent their dissatisfaction about the situation.
In as much as we all want the country to be Fixed, let’s have some sense of responsibility in discharging our duties towards National Development. I was shocked upon seeing that video and what we yearned for in every District is been used to carry cement.I am weak😢😢

After this, they will use the siren to go through traffic creating an impression that there's an emergency. Why is it that some of our leaders enjoy short-changing us like that?🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️@ishmade
