AT LEAST 20 people are reported to have died from an outbreak of gastro-enteritis (cholera) at Ezeukwu community in Bende local government area of Abia State. However, the state Commissioner for Health, Dr. Okechukwu Oga, confirmed that only 15 people died and that the situation had been brought under control.

Oga disclosed in a telephone interview with Vanguard that those affected had been moved to where there were better medical facilities, adding that there was no cause for alarm as the situation had been brought under total control.

According to the Commissioner, the cholera outbreak occurred last Sunday in the community.

He pointed out that the casualties were those affected between 3am and 12noon that Sunday before the Ministry of Health became aware and deployed its personnel and medications to control the situation.

Oga disclosed that so far, over 70 cases had been recorded with 15 mortalities, assuring that the government had taken adequate measures to ensure that the decease did not spread to other parts of the community.

Suspected cause

Sources from the community were of the opinion that the outbreak would have been caused by adulterated water, as the community’s major source of drinking water is from a local stream in the area.

When the outbreak occurred, most of the victims were said to have been initially rushed to Royal Cross Hospital in the area, owned by the Methodist Church, which then called for government’s assistance.

The commissioner advised the people not to panic, assuring that enough medications and personnel had been deployed in the area.

Deep Soul:

You sound like you're a really horrible person. I stand to be corrected.

@Topic:

How sad. I cant for the life of me figure out why that cultist was voted back in. Water is one of the most basic necessities of our existence and if their main source of water is a stream in 2011, the Nigerian case is just pure hopeless at this point. How much does it cost to create a Borehole, really? How much?

Koolstan:

Bloody cretin! (Apologies to Sagamite). 15 people are dead and all your daft arse could do was blab shyte about Massob. Are you so stuck on Igbos?

Reanaa:

Wat has MASOB got to do with this epidemic?You supposed to be a responsible woman but your comments proof otherwise. Do you think God forbid that such thing happen to your relatives and cool with it happening to others? what makes you think you are more important than those who has been affected? I see your TRIBAL MARKS is getting all over you. I dont see the reason why a mature woman like u supposed to be  shuld trigger tribal hate on a thread like this.
Now dont think am defending my people cos am not even from that state for your info, am jus disappoint the way a woman who is supposed to be sober over sudden death caused by an outbreak is here clicking her tribal fingers in contempt, Arant Nonsense! where the hell are from? Ekiti right? I dont like to go tribal but i must tell you this, that local community where this happend cud be far better than dat Ado your call your state capital. Nosense, very dry place, we even hav to go to Ondo to buy foods stuffs during my service yr. Tribal woman my foot!!

Deep Soul:

In addition to being a horrible person, you are also quite stewwwpid. Sad combination

Deep Soul:
