The NPP MP in a post on Facebook shared how businessman Ibrahim Mahama airlifted him abroad for medical treatment.
According to the NPP MP, he had a near-fatal accident in February 2020, and a close of his received an unexpected call from Ibrahim Mahama, who asked that the hospital be informed to prepare him to be airlifted out of the country on his private jet.
Davis Opoku Ansah further added that seeing Ibrahim Mahama dedicate his old jet to be converted into a lifesaving air ambulance for nationwide emergency response is both inspiring and commendable.
In a Facebook page on March 4, 2026, Dabis Opoku narrated, “In February 2020, after a near-fatal accident, a close friend of mine received an unexpected call. It was Ibrahim Mahama. He asked that the hospital be informed to prepare me to be evacuated out of the country on his private jet.
It was a moment that revealed the depth of his kindness and readiness to help when it truly mattered.
Today, seeing him dedicate his old jet to be converted into a lifesaving air ambulance for nationwide emergency response is both inspiring and commendable.
Acts like this remind us that leadership and patriotism are often expressed through quiet generosity and service to others.
If he has made this commitment to support emergency medical care in Ghana, then it is only right that we wish him well and pray for God’s continued blessings upon him and this noble initiative.
Ghana needs more acts of compassion and national service like this”.
