The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention has dismissed reports circulating online and offline claiming that there are confirmed cases of Ebola Virus Disease in Nigeria.
In a post on its X handle on Saturday, the agency described the reports as false and urged Nigerians to rely only on information from official sources.
“We wish to clarify: there are currently no confirmed cases of Ebola in Nigeria. Any report stating otherwise is false,” the NCDC said.
The agency assured the public that it remains vigilant and continues to strengthen surveillance, preparedness and response measures across the country to prevent and detect any potential outbreak.
According to the NCDC, health authorities are closely monitoring developments and maintaining necessary public health measures nationwide.
