The vehicles, valued at $2.4m, according to a technical report by Global automobile company Mercedes Benz, have 18 defects, making it 'useless.'

Speaking at an event organized in his honor on his 60 birthday and twenty five years in politics, he said people are busily scheming to discredit him.

He said "What most people don’t know about the ambulance saga so far as I am concerned is that, even though there was the need to import those ambulances which was started during my  tenure as health minister, I was not in the ministry as the health minister when the final agreement for the purchase of the ambulance was reached."
