Nigeria's first ebola case sparks shock and urgent concern nationwide

Nigerian authorities are racing to trace contacts after a diplomat was declared the country's first Ebola case. The patient reportedly arrived in Abuja from Uganda on October 3rd, sparking shock and urgent concern nationwide. We received the news with mixed feelings because it's been long since we last had the case of Ebola And in fact, Ebola came in before coronavirus and it was so shocking when we got the news yesterday. I was just going through the news and I was alarmed at the resurgence of Ebola once again in Nigeria. Nigeria's first Ebola case is the deadly Bunduki strain linked to a major DR Congo outbreak. Residents are demanding urgent government action. The head council of Nigeria should go out and create what we call a sensitization campaign in the society, in every town, in every state, because they're everywhere. The DRC's deadly Ebola epidemic on record has killed 4,381 people with over 9,000 confirmed cases.
