    1. U are dumber than I thought. Do you know how many others who are in Nigeria? This is the first recorded case because he was a rich and enlightened man who suspected it and rushed to the hospital. What of those who come into Nigeria by thread or sea with the virus? Buy some sense

    @Desmond no vex o but i must tell d truth bros u can not sleep with two eyes closed because there is every possibility that this man might have transferred this virus to the prostitute that he slept with in his hotel there is no way that the virus wont have spread the same way Alex iguwa brought HIV in to Nigeria 1984 he gave it to a prostitute that spread it
    the truth is this Liberian bastard knew he had the virus he came to Nigeria to spread it that was his mission the fed gov needs to ban all liberians from entering this country the virus is already in Nigeria just wait u will c it spreadin

  12. @Paul you are very correct this Liberia man knew very well that he had Ebola Virus before he came to Nigeria he just wanted to spread the virus to Nigeria before he will die.......I think the federal government should checked foreigners very well before entering this country.
