ReplyDeleteThis is satanic attack because everyone entering into the soil of Nigeria with deadly syndromes must be treated as a criminal and due hands of the law should deal decisively with them. Away with Ebola in Nigerian soul and I say back to sender and their family in Jesus name. Amen
ReplyDeleteHyper religious people, Boko Haram and stigmatization of some parts of the country by the northerners are more deadly than Ebola Virus. Just because both the rich and the poor would be affected that is why you are sounding religious. As in the case of hajj stampede where both the rich and the poor were affected, the so-called Islamic scholars made a U-turn by unveiling slaughtering ram as alternative /substitute for stoning the devil. The same people that said hajj stampede is a destiny and better to die in a holy land than elsewhere, are now apologizing to the world. "my people are dying for lack of knowledge ". God help Nigeria.
