Ebola has hit Liberia in its highest places. The country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, operating directly under the presidency, has been hit by the deadly Ebola virus.

An administrative assistant to Augustine Ngafuan, the country’s foreign minister, died showing symptoms of the deadly virus on Monday. Her husband, who is also a staff in the office of President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, has been quarantined, FrontPageAfrica reported.

It was reported that Ngafuan’s aide, whose office was only two floors below the floor now being used as the President’s office, had contracted the disease from her sister who died from the disease.


A faith healer who had attempted to heal the aide’s sister had also died from the disease. But the chance that anyone else in the office would have contracted the virus from late aide and her husband (whose name were withheld to avoid panic) is greatly reduced because the couple had been given a 21-day break after the aide’s sisters death.

Meanwhile, Ngafuan is currently in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia attending an emergency meeting of the African Union’s Executive Council on the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak. The minister has not made any official statement about the incident.

The AU members are recommending the urgent lifting of all travel bans imposed on countries affected by the Ebola outbreak in Africa.

The ministry became the office of the presidency in 2006 after fire gutted the fourth floor during celebrations marking the 159th Independence Day celebrations of the nation.

South African forensic scientists brought in to probe the cause of the fire said it was an electrical fault.

Following the fire outbreak at the Executive Mansion, the Government of Liberia announced a closure of the Mansion, and President Johnson-Sirleaf relocated to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where the president has for the past eight years been performing official state functions.
