The National Orientation Agency (NOA) in Benue State has urged residents to remain vigilant against Ebola Virus Disease, saying Nigeria is on high alert despite having no confirmed cases.

In a statement signed by Aja DIA, Assistant Director Health and Social Care, for Mark Dewua, NOA State Director, said the advisory was issued on 25 May 2026 to prepare the public following heightened global risk and the potential for cross-border transmission through international travel.

“The Nigerian Centre for Disease Control and Prevention had already placed the country on precautionary alert.

“Ebola is a severe and often fatal illness spread through direct contact with the blood or body fluids of an infected person or animal”, Dewua said.
