US To Test Jonathan Aides & African Leaders For EBOLA Ahead Of Summit by DeevaB: 7:46am On Aug 03, 2014
Ahead of the coming African/American Leaders Summit billed for Monday in Washington DC, United States, President Barack Obama, has said some African participants attending will be screened for exposure to the dreaded Ebola virus.

President Goodluck Jonathan along with his aides is among the African leaders expected to attend the event.

According to a Reuters report, Obama explained on Friday that the action would be taken to protect the US from the outbreak of the disease.

He said, “Folks who are from these countries that have even a marginal risk, or an infinitesimal risk of having been exposed in some fashion, we’re making sure we’re doing screening.”

The United States, Obama said, takes risks from the deadly Ebola virus very seriously hence the planned test for the expected African leaders.

Also, two African leaders have said that they would not attend the meeting because of the outbreak of the Ebola disease in their countries. The leaders are the presidents of Liberia and Sierra Leone, Mrs Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf and Ernest BaiKoroma, respectively.

Meanwhile, professional health bodies and medical experts have condemned Nigeria’s response to the global outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease. They strongly condemned what they described as poor preventive measures put in place by the Federal Government.

I'm sorry but I wish Ghadaffi was alive for this kind of humiliation. He won't take this shii.

This is an insult to the office of the president and all the people it represents.

I can't believe some African leaders will still go and won't mind being tested.

AU leaders are just bunch of cowards!!

It's an insult to Africa As a whole... buh why won't they take a preventive measure when our health sector is really nothing to show off...

This also shows how much they value the lives of their citizens. No fuss

They should test GEJ. Even his middle name stands for Ebola.









Edit: Sorry! I just found out it is Ebele.

OP you mean Ebola Jonathan? that guy is carrying a disease worse than ebola cos there exist a lil chance that ebola might one day be curable, but cluelessness? not a chance in hell! the worse part of the disease is that the carrier and his infected follow-worshipers do not even know that they are carrying the deadly disease!

I feel a solution would have been found if this disease is not restricted to Africa... now that It can lead to a global outbreak, we hope a solution is found soon
