The death toll of a meningitis outbreak in Nigeria has reached 813 sixteen weeks after it started.

Nigeria's Minister of Health, Isaac Adewole, who made the revelation on Wednesday in Abuja, said the disease is now spreading more slowly.

“As of yesterday (Tuesday), the number of deaths stood at 813”, he said after the presidential meeting cabinet meeting, adding however, “As of now, we are also noticing a decline”.

“This is week 16. This is also expected because we are moving away from the active season. We are confident that in the next couple of weeks everything will be over.”

816 dead from a preventable outbreak and no outcry?
There was a news about how the men in charge of the vaccines stole them, and the rest they were selling at N1000 to people.

And one efulefu was telling telling me how Igbo people are greedy and selfish, how Hausa love each other, I just asked him why wouldn't Hausa love themselves when they steal ordinary vaccines meant to save lives of their people and divert food meant for IDPs.
That kind of love is stronger that Jesus own indeed.
What a brotherly love.

How? When he is working from home?

This is serious. This should be expected when preventive medicine has been abandoned

Thanks for my family's

The fellow is making it sound like good news...Unbelievable!

Wow d death toll is more than d population of a country

Jesu, aye Mi temi.. .. And no one was sacked! Nobody resigned and we Nigerians are just comfortable. It seem this APC Govt has a juju on us that makes us not to respond on vital issues

And a Governor said it is as a result of fornication and Adultery...The Northern part of this country is in deep shit..Ask Sanusi...

Just observing

This is the most sensible comment I've read on here since I joined this forum.

This country has become a mass graveyard. People are dying in great numbers. No one cares. If you talk, dey go kill you join. We are doomed. And we are just ordinary people trying to make a living, under the yoke of an accursed government.

As much as I love what you have wrote out. But let us not be far from the truth. You know nigeria youth and common civilian behave the way they do not because we hate ourself; Rather It is clearly because of the failure and consistent heatbreaking and difficult situation we find our self, I tell you of truth If a typical nigeria man can be comfortable he will accomdate any tribe. Advising will not help like you are doing, this is the internet and it is the access for a any nigeria to throw their frustration at, It is just a Transfer of agreession of our failed goverment and our lack of competent leader.

Buhari government is disgraceful. Thank God ebora did not come during this useless administration, Nigeria 4 hear am

Eleyi gidi Gan....

If Buhari was President during Ebola

dont worry zombies


this story and their incompetencies will be quickly hidden


tomorrow efcc will find 100m$ in goodluck dentist house



and bmc will remind us why the work from home mum/president should rule us till death

sai dollard

sai olodo work from home president

Let all civil and public servants start working from home. It has started with the presidency.. #softwork

K

They should be blaming the act of fornication and GEJ past govt rather than work. As someone said earlier that ebola didn't happen in this present govt otherwise those BMC guys will b scared to go to work doing their daily propaganda. May the soul of the departed ones R.I.P

Some of us just do it for fun. It's really interesting. Don't take most of the hate comments serious

This is very worrisome.
It is well.

And zombies will come and masturbate about their Messiah as the next best thing to happen after Akara and bread....

Menigities killing that much?

If it is Ebola nko? Chai... We for hear am....

This country is a zoo

Nigeria struggles to contain meningitis as death toll rises rapidly

Nigeria is battling its worst outbreak of meningitis in more than 20 years. The latest figures show the death toll has hit at least 845 with most of the victims children.

Cluelessness, a prof of medicine.
813 died under your watch and its been announced like no big deal.

Worst part, it's been left to naturally decline by relying "its season" coming to an end?

Gosh! This country is actually very sick if this is the kind of Doctor or Minister of Health we are parading.
