The Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, has hailed Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola for his administration’s responsiveness and collaboration with the Federal Government in tackling the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak.

The first case of the disease was recorded in July when the late Liberian-American Patrick Sawyer was diagnosed with the disease.
Four other people, including Dr. Stella Ameyo Adadevoh, the doctor who treated the late Sawyer, have died of the disease, all in Lagos.
The minister also hailed President Goodluck Jonathan for the Federal Government’s N1.9 billion Ebola Intervention Fund, besides Wednesday’s Federal Executive Councils (FEC’s) approval of N200 million to support the Lagos State Government to contain the EVD.
Obanikoro commiserated with the families of those who died of the


disease, especially the medical personnel who contracted the disease when they were battling to save infected persons.
