Kogi State government dispelled yesterday a rumour making the rounds that there is an outbreak of Ebola virus in Lokoja.
A few days ago, there was a rumour that an Ebola patient was rejected at the Kogi State Specialist Hospital.
Describing the rumour as dangerous, the state Epidemiologist, Dr. Samuel Ihinmikaye, urged residents to disregard it.
Government said it is aware of the rumour.
It said: “There is no case of Ebola viral haemorrhagic fever in the state. “There is no Ebola virus patient either brought or admitted at the Kogi State Specialist Hospital, Lokoja or any other hospital in the state.”
