Ebola-Nigerians are harrassing our citizens- Liberian Govt cries out....

The Liberian government had complained that its citizens are being harassed ever since the first case of Ebola in Nigeria was recorded by a Liberian .The Ambassador to Nigeria Martin George told Nigeria's Health Minister ,Onyebuchi Chukwu
“The attention of our embassy has been brought to several cases of harassment of Liberians especially in Lagos and other places. This harassment borders on stereotyping and sometimes expression of collective guilt.Just because the ‘index case’ came from Liberia, so ‘all Liberians in Nigeria have Ebola’. That is the message and people are being harassed,”“There are law-abiding Liberians living here in Nigeria who have been harassed. So I appeal for your indulgence as you frame the responses especially on the radio talk shows. People have been making all kind of derogatory remarks that have been brought to our attention,”

  15. Our Government should also have been more proactive by screening passengers coming into the country from countries with outbreak of the disease. I mean, the first case was in march and in July nothing yet was put in place by our govt., that is gross negligence and should be probed.

  16. That man shouldn't have been allowed into the country, they should have quarantined. Him,seeing that he exhibited symptoms of Ebola infection...
