Nigerian Healthcare Excellence Awards is set to honour late First Consultant Hospital consultant Dr. Stella Ameyo Adadevoh, and other health care workers who contributed significantly to the containment of the Ebola outbreak in the country.

Speaking on the initiative, Dr. Wale Alabi, Chief Executive Officer, Global Health Project and Resources, and Programme Director of NHEA said the honourees saved the country from a national crisis.

Adadevoh and her colleagues deserve to be celebrated for their noble role.

The late doctor’s courage saved the lives of so many people. Other health workers also ensured that the outbreak was contained. Subsequently, some paid with their lives. Their dedication and sacrifice for the greater good of the nation is inspirational and deserves recognition.

According to the organisers, over 80 organisations and individuals were nominated for recognition on the occasion.

The late Dr Adadevoh led the medical team that handled the index case of Ebola in Nigeria at the First Consultants Hospital, Obalende in August 2014. There are many other posthumous awards lined up for her.

May her soul RIP.

Nigerians really owe this woman!

Her name should be immortalized.


Abuja Centenary city should be named after her or N5000 bill should bear her picture any time Nigeria decides on rolling it out.

Continue to RIP

How time flies, its been a year since her heroic demise. No price is worthy of rewarding you of your selfless service which had averted what we could have tagged a great disaster. You will forever be acknowledged by this generation. We love you but, Christ loves you more. Sleep on in the glory of the Almighty.
