Ellen Sirleaf-Johnson President of Liberia has said that the Ebola exploited person, Patrick Sawyer, was on reconnaissance, yet he sneaked out of Liberia and came to Lagos, where he passed on after 24 hours.
The Liberian President communicated concern over the lamentable episode and apologized to Nigeria for the benefit of her comrade who brought the infection to the nation.
As indicated by the Minister of State on Foreign Affairs, Mr. Nurudeem Mohammed, Sirleaf-Johnson told the Federal Government that Sawyer was on reconnaissance when he sneaked out of Liberia through Asky Airline.
Mohammed told columnists in Abuja on Thursday that Sirleaf-Johnson had apologized to Nigeria over Sawyer's visit to Nigeria.
The Liberian Ambassador to Nigeria, Prof. AL- Hassan Conteh who partook in the preparation of the International Community on Ebola, begged the FG to stop the humiliation and shame Sawyer's activity had brought on Liberians living in Nigeria.
Conteh said since the Ebola episode in Nigeria, media and Port specialists have separated and irritated Liberians, and he approached the Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu, to help spare the circumstances.
He said, "The way that the individual who brought the malady was from Liberia does not mean all Liberians were sure of Ebola Virus Disease.
"The Liberian President had placed measures set up by pronouncing 90 days crisis in the nation starting from August 6 to strategize on the most proficient method to stop the spread of the sickness to different nations."
In the mean time, Chuwku has asked the International Community to respond to the Ebola call as a worldwide issue as opposed to a local matter, including that Ebola has high death rate over different infections and along these lines, can't be dismissed by different nations on the planet.
Chukwu who reported the crumbling state of other wellbeing laborers who had contracted Ebola, urged the global group to support Nigeria in fighting the threat.
As indicated by the clergyman, the World Health Organization, expressed that since July 24,2014, around 1700 are existing with EVD and more than 900 had passed on.
