Omole, has cleared the air surrounding the status of the female
student of the institution who was suspected to have been a secondary
contact with Ebola Virus Disease.
He confirmed that she has tested negative to the deadly virus.
Speaking to newsmen in Ile-Ife in Osun state, Prof. Bamitale Omole
made it clear that the lady who was sent to the Ebola Isolation Centre
in Lagos for further clinical and laboratory investigation, has been
certified and proved negative of the dreaded EVD .
Prof. Omole gave assurance that the institution would in no way
stigmatize the student who is still out of town, more so when she has
been clinically confirmed free of the Ebola Virus.
On measures put in place to curtail the EVD, Prof. Omole said that
foreign students have been asked not to resume yet, particularly the
ones from Liberia, until the coast is clear.
He urged the people to go about their normal activities, assuring that
the OAU Ebola Surveillance Committee would continue to maintain all
precautionary measures to ensure that OAU remains Ebola Free.
