It's inappropriate, what about others who lost their lives doing their job? They can make it "in memory of those who lost their lives in the fight against Ebola".

Hope you don't start changing your minds when you find out Dr. Adadevoh is a Ghanaian.

See how she sacrificed her life to save Nigerians.

Afam4eva,otijah,sunshinelady and all those saying why her,what about the others?

She was not just a doctor,she was a consultant.She was the head of the medical team and was in charge of the patient.Her expertise and experience was the reason why they found out the patient had ebola virus disease.When he presented at the hospital,he was being treated for malaria until Dr Adadevoh took over and made further investigations.She also ensured he did not leave the hospital.The other doctors might have discharged him.She made calls to other institutions,other consultants and Lagos state officials to ensure the best outcome.

I'm not saying the others should not be recognised but she was the one who gave others instructions on management.She was their boss.
You can't compare a consultant to a nurse.

I was expecting a better say from you. A doctor's not a security guard. Other men were there in the facility with her, but non wanted tomake contact with him. She understood the meaning of if it if it went out tothe public and SHE single handedly contain HIM against all odds, (stronger,agile, voracious, mean, etc) apart from the act of bravry that she took up the spirit toattend tohim. If not foranything else, we should show our appreciation. She left her immediate family behind to think of her country first. That's patriotism. Thanks

I think she deserve such honour since she was the leading Consultant in the hospital and the rest heroine/hero can have the wards/units named after them for their heroic deed and greatest sacrifice !!

Great and Heroic Bloodline


... she comes from excellent stock and she is the product of a noble and illustrious lineage.
She was the great great
granddaughter of Herbert Macaulay,the founder of Nigerian
nationalism, a great and
courageous nationalist, the
scourge of the British colonialists, the founder of the first Nigerian political party, the Nigerian National Democratic Party (NNDP), the founder of the Nigerian Youth Movement (NYM) and the founder of one the most formidable political parties in our history, the National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons (NCNC).

She was also the great, great,
great grandaughter of Thomas
Babington Macaulay, the founder
of the first secondry school in
Nigeria, Christian Missionary
Grammar School, Lagos (CMS
Grammar School).

She was also the great, great, great, great granddaughter of Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther, the first African Bishop of the Anglican Church, the. man who first translated the Holy Bible to yoruba, the man who first translated the Book of Common Prayer to yoruba, the first Nigerian to be awarded a Doctorate of Divinity from Oxford University in 1864 and the man who introduced Christianity to the Lagos Colony (as it then was) and to most of south-western Nigeria. In terms of heritage, excellent blood lines and good stock you can’t do much better than that.

She died doing what she was supposed to do.

What's heroic about it?

No. Leave the name as is.

GowonAbacha: A good idea but honestly, with all due respect to the dead, this woman is just too overrated. Comm'on many other doctors died and risked their lives in this fight.
The idea is to celebrate patriotism with a face behind it. She showed leadership, selflessness and patriotism which we need to remind ourselves and teach those who are coming behind to emulate. Adadevoh like many of our heroes and heroines have done their own part. What ever we do about their legacy is a service or disservice to ourselves.

Afam4eva:
I was gonna say this but wanted to be very careful in order not to incur the wrath of some people. With all due respect to the dead, i don't see how what this woman did is different from what was done by other doctors and nurses who sacrificed their lives to make sure th Liberian remained in the hospital. why pick her out of the lot?
How can you make that statement. The Liberian had been tested for Ebola before he came to Nigeria. His result came out negative. Among all the medical workers, she suspected Ebola and reduced more exposure of more health workers by organising emergency safety kits.

She asked for him to be tested for Ebola.

She found out where the test should be carried out.

She called the health workers and informed them of the possibility of them being exposed to the virus and gave them safety measures to prevent spread to their families.

She fought for the Liberian not to be discharged, despite pressure from top level government officials.

I wonder how you guys can say she did nothing different from other doctors.

Sunshinelady: Honouring her is good, at least to commend her eforts. But it wuld seem unfair to d families of d oda deceased. So dey shuld honour dem all; each ward shuld be named after sombody, all d pple dat partook in dat battle to curtail ebola , both d living & d dead.
Am sure they will, she's the boss and also a consultant that's why we hear abt her more often. Something like a professor in tha academic sector.

Well said!...They have no idea what she did for us all. If only they read the accounts of the nurses and doctors that survived the virus

Her colleagues respect her and mourned her passing.

It would be lovely to have her on our Naira. I will not forget her as I do not know any Nigerian hero
