Six people have died of choera in Lagos while 45 cases have line-listed by the Epidemiology Unit of the Lagos State Ministry of Health.
The ministry has also raised the alarm over upsurge of diarhoea diseases in some communities in Isolo Local Council Development Authority (LCDA).

Briefing the media, yesterday, Health Commissioner, Dr Jide Idris said ano-rectal swabs, which were collected from 15 cases and taken to the Central Public Health Laboratory, Yaba showed that, initially, there were no growths.
However, continuous culture yielded Vibro cholerae from seven, out of the 15 samples. The Vibrio cholera was later confirmed to be Ogawa strain, Idris said.

The commissioner said the suspected source of infection is the salad called Abacha, a staple food common with residents of Isolo LCDA and adjourning local councils and LCDAs.

The commissioner gave further information. “Twenty six cases were managed at Isolo General Hospital and Lagos Mainland Hospital. Twenty two have been discharged, one has died while three are still on admission at Lagos Mainland Hospital. All the three cases still on admission are in stable condition.
