It turns out that the video of unknown men offloading cement bags from an ambulance was not the fault of the Ambulance Service.
This follows a press statement issued by a car servicing company, Service Ghana Autogroup Limited.
According to the company, the ambulance in question developed fault on the day it was commissioned and has been in their custody since.
“The vehicle got a gearbox problem which was under warranty. We had it in wait until the gearbox was imported and fitted. After repair works were completed, a mandatory test drive was conducted from Mamprobi to Kasoa. It was during the test drive that the driver committed that dastardly act.”
The company goes on to say that; “the Ghana National Ambulance Service is not to blame but rather Service Ghana Autogroup Liited”.
Meanwhile, the company in question has called for more investigations as they have rendered an unqualified apology to the Ambulance Service and staff.
