House of Representatives has raised serious concerns over what lawmakers described as a crippling funding crisis at Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), warning that the country’s capacity to respond to a possible Ebola outbreak and other epidemic-prone diseases has been dangerously weakened.
The alarm was raised through a Motion on a Matter of Urgent National Importance sponsored by Hon. Amobi Ogah.
