The American Ambassador to Nigeria, James
Entwistle, on Monday said his country was not yet
in a position to make the Ebola Disease
experimental drug, Zmapp, available to Nigeria.
Mr. Entwistle said during a visit to the Nigerian
Minister of Health, Onyebuchi Chukwu, that the drug
was not yet available in sufficient quantity to go
round all the countries requesting it.
The ambassador did not say when the drug would
be available for Africa’s most populous country.
He only advised the Nigerian health ministry to
focus on isolation, screening and prevention.
Mr. Entwistle commended the efforts of the Federal
Government in curbing the spread of the Ebola virus
in the country.
He said the aim of the visit was to discuss further
on the anti-Ebola cooperation between the U.S
government and the Nigerian government.
The ambassador also praised the work done at the
emergency operation centre and the isolation
centre, saying he understood that they
were working hard.
“You have all seen the headlines over the weekend,
this is an issue that we have to keep working hard
on, it may be with us for a while but there are some
encouraging signs.
“Your government is doing a good job on contact
tracing; I noticed when I flew back here on
Thursday night into the country, before I left the
plane I filed in the questionnaire.
“I was very impressed because I had to put in my
seat number which is a very good idea, so that if
you have to trace the guy who was seating next to
me you will know where I am.
“I have been very impressed by this thing so I
encourage the government of Nigeria to keep at it,
which I know they will,” he said.
Mr.Entwistle said the two countries had a broad
partnership to keep collaborating, cooperating and
working hard to make the world a better place.
He said he could not think of a more important
example of cooperation than the Ebola cooperation.
Speaking during the visit, the Minister of Health,
Onyebuchi Chukwu, said the Nigerian Government
was withholding its approval for the Anti-Ebola drug
Nano-Silver produced by a Nigerian because it did
not meet the requirements of the National Health
Research Ethics Code. He said that the Nano Silver
drug, which was made available to the
Emergency Operations Centre in Lagos on August
14, did not meet basic research requirements.
“The experimental drug, Nano Silver did not meet
the requirements of the National Health Research
Ethics Code.
“Accordingly, the approval was withheld by the
National Health Research Ethics Committee,” Mr.
Chukwu said.
He said the ambassador’s visit was an opportunity
to share ideas and information on Ebola virus.
“He is the spokesperson for the United States’
government here in Nigeria, and so he came to me
as the Chief Public Health Officer of the country to
exchange views with me,” Mr. Chukwu said.
The minister said Mr. Entwistle also visited to know
if there was any new development that recently
cropped up on the Ebola virus.

There's more to it.

K'oni daa fun e.

Patrick sawyer was intentionally sent to Nigeria to spread Ebola so that Nigeria will bow to pressure and reverse their anti gay law in a bid to get the ebola drugs frm USA. To hell wit America and their zmap, after calling our nano silver pesticide they refuse to push down their zmapp to us. Nigeria will overcome ebola and move on well without the help of America.

Oyinbo to se pencil lo se erazer.....dese America guyzz knw more abt d virus.....I believe dat dey purposely develop dizz virus just to milk us dry...dere are questions to be asked.....why are they rejecting every experimental drugs apart from ZMAPP....d ZMAPP z even in small quantity...dizz is tym for our medical researchers to develop smetin new dat can combat dizz deadly virus....God help us

I no blame am/dem...


Well, good news are reported as more Ebola patients are being discharged.

God is in Nigeria to cure ebola by himself. We can survive without America. America you are not our God. Our God is not asleep.

So how did they know that it did not meet the Health Code? If I didn't remember any better, the Lagos state government rejected the drugs without prior testing. But all the same, Nigerians are one stubborn set of people who will withstand almost anything. If not for this nature, I wonder what would have been left of us--there were SARS, Bird flu, Swine flu, Polio, HIV and now Ebola(which we'll definitely contain). We are blessed.

The Americans should keep their zmapp and their homo lifestyle. Nigeria has so far treated 5 patients successfully with only 4 remaining. We will definitely be fine.

To hell with the USA

They only allowed us to manage the situation without their help which i think is good. We should start doing things on our own.

You guys should stop all these God horsheshit!! Where has your "God" been when his are being slain daily on account of their religion??
Or is he blind to the cries of those innocent women and children

CIA agent. He came know if all 9ja r infected already bt was sorely disappointed.

Our own made in 9ja cure z on d way IJN

Countries are investing on education, health, infrastructure, human capital development etc. While in our own country Doctors/health workers, lecturers go on strike regularly because of Govt inability to serve the people. Govt in our country live and drown in corrupt enrichments. They steal up every Kobo meant for development. Anything we want, govt should invest so we can develop and begin to grow like other countries and not begging. No nation has developed by begging.

This Man- Mr Entwistle, is a first class Amebo and spy. He probably heard a good number of Ebola patients were recovering,and he went there to snoop around,hoping to find out what they were treated with and then report to USA.

and u think Nigerian government are not investing in those sectors? Anyway,e no concern me.

ok nah.

The way we announce any little progress we make is unhealthy, and this to hell usa shit, I think we should relax and take a deep breath.
The forces acting behind this Ebola scene might be american or any other country, but when a witch torments you spiritually, you don't confront her physically but in the spirit by prayer.

Mr Entwistle keep this explanation to urself ... We are making progress to manage Ebola without ur ZMAPP...
Tell Obama we are nt going to reverse our anti-gay policy..

Mumu man, because say we no gree die ontop say dem create virus com refuse us the antivirus, he come dey yarn rubbish. I'm sure if we hadn't been able to manage n control this virus so far, he wouldn't have even neared the shores of Nigeria, bomboclastic Mofo
