Breaking News-- Nigeria Is Officially Free Of Ebola After 6weeks With No Cases

                    Yes we did it! World Health Organisation today, Monday October 20th officially declared Nigeria Ebola free after six weeks of no new cases. The declaration which is ongoing at the Shehu Musa Yar'Adua centre in Abuja had the WHO country representative, Rui Gama Vaz, Nigeria's Health minister Chukwu, former Minister of Information, Labaran Maku, and a host of others in attendance. 
Rui Gama Vaz said,

"The virus is gone for now. The outbreak in Nigeria has been defeated. This is a spectacular success story that shows to the world that Ebola can be contained." 

Just a few weeks ago, Nigeria conquered Guineaworm and now Ebola. I believe this is a sign that we can truly conquer anything we set our minds on as a nation and a people. 

Congratulations to us again! It feels so good to be a Nigerian today. Lol.

I got photos from the event from the Ebola Alert twitter page, continue to see the pics...

The declaration is taking place right now at the Shehu Musa Yar'Adua centre in Abuja.
