and manner Sawyer brought Ebola to Nigeria assured citizens that

Jonathan informed the gathering that the federal government planned
to rally the 36 states governors and their Commissioners of Health to
rescue the nation from further spread of the disease.
“On Wednesday, I will meet with governor of the states, and they must
come along with their commissioners of Health. We must make sure that
every state is prepared, where they lack, the federal government will
support them,”
The president said that his discussion with the head of WHO has given
him more information about the virus assured the gathering that the
virus will be stopped from causing more harm.
“My conversation with the WHO DG, Dr Margaret Chan was revealing,

That is why in my announcement, I’ve been saying that people should be
careful about burials.”

ceremony, somebody is dead, he is dead, leave him there. This is not the
best time for those ceremonies.”

Nigeria; his sister died of Ebola. And he started acting somehow, his
country asked him not to leave the country, let them observe him, but
the crazy man decided to leave and found his way here.”
