Trust Nigerians to over react in matters like this. The family of Nigeria’s fourth Ebola victim, Late Ms. Justina Ejelonu who worked as a nurse at First Consultant Hospital in Lagos before meeting her untimely death, have cried out over the public humiliation they have being facing ever since their sister passed away at Mainland hospital in Yaba where she was isolated.
According to her sister who spoke to Sahara reporters on the phone said, it’s so sad that her husband has been made to go on compulsory leave from work out of fear that he might have contracted the deadly Ebola disease. Her parents and other siblings are also not left out, as neighbours have been carefully avoiding them, she said in a low disturbing tone.
Mrs. Anugwolu also noted that, her late sister did not spend her last days in Enugu but in Lagos where she died and was buried and wonder why they have to face such humiliation from neighbours
She also complained that her sister’s last days were gruesome. According to Mrs. Anugwolu, the government neglected her and other victims of Ebola. She told Saharareporters that her sister was denied water the day before she died because healthcare workers were not willing to go in and serve her and others suffering in the quarantine center at Yaba area of Lagos.
“Wherever my sister is, her soul will be at peace for bringing her plight to illuminate and force the government to act against Ebola, ” she says.
