The ministry of Health, he said must “ensure that there’s an ambulance each placed in the house of Nana Akufo-Addo and President John Mahama respectively.
“…Because of the kind shcock that they are going to get on that day, if there’s no ambulance quite closer to them, you might not here good news in Ghana,” added Mr. Yeboah.
