BREAKING: Ebola Kills Another Lagos Nurse

According to reports reaching us, the deadly and fast-spreading Ebola Virus Disease, EVD, has claimed the life of another health worker who attended to late Liberian-American, Patrick Sawyer, who is believed to have brought the virus to Nigeria.

The nurse, Obi Justina Ejelonu, was one of those who had contact with late Sawyer, who died of Ebola some days ago.

Ejelonu, a 25-year-old nurse, reportedly died on Thursday morning where she was quarantined in Lagos, after contracting the killer-virus.

Before her death, she campaigned for the release of the experimental Ebola cure-drug, Zmapp, which was administered on two American health workers who contracted the disease and are doing fine.

The virus has killed over 1000 persons so far, including a senior female health official in Lagos, who died some days ago.
