EBOLA: Before It Is Too Late!- A Nairalander by ogbenicodes(m): 2:47pm On Sep 12, 2014
Wouldn't bore you with story, Ebola came to Nigeria July 25(6 weeks) by the American Liberian; Patrick Sawyer, 40years of age. And since then it is obvious our government lacks the competence to deal with it.

A country that knows how its medical facilities are/ is, ought to have done these following things since the outbreak:

1. Temporary Closure of all public meeting places;
church, Rallies, Supermarkets, 'SCHOOLS'- Main
reason for this post.
Since EBOLA can be transferred mere contact(once
the virus touches the reddish part of the human
skin) and the curbing it would means reduction in
public gatherings. Primary and Secondary student
are prone to spread the virus speedily than adults,
so then the government asked all schools to shut
down till further notice, then quickly reversed its
decision that they should resume October 13, the
issue of school shutting down should have been part
of the first steps taken by the government since the
outbreak, but what do we have weeks after was
when they deemed it fit to temporarily close down
Nursery, Primary and Secondary schools.

Let's assume the temporary shut down was delayed due to some issues, why are they about to Open it?, despite knowing how "EVD" would spread once it gets to kids? Why the irrational withdrawal of the said date? I really do want to believe our
Government is on top of the situation like they claim, and not giving unnecessary hope when we
know there isn't.

Its a good thing teachers are kicking against the
resumption of schools... If not!

Let's kick against the resumption of SCHOOLS for
our own and family sake
