Happy birthday to me! It’s only getting higher from here.

NCDC Approves ₦100,000 Weekly Payment For People Isolated Over Ebola Outbreak The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) has approved an emergency payment of ₦100,000 per person weekly to support people isolated or quarantined over the Ebola outbreak in the Federal Capital Territory. NCDC Director-General, Dr Jide Idris, disclosed this during a press briefing on Sunday, explaining that the support became necessary after some contacts complained about the cost of feeding, accommodation and maintaining their families while under monitoring. “We are paying for their accommodation; we are paying for their feeding. Some of them are asking for a stipend to maintain their families,” Idris said. He added that the agency was providing ₦100,000 per person weekly to cover their basic needs during isolation. “This was not planned for, but it is an emergency. We will continue to review it as we go along,” he said. Idris stressed that the responsibility should not rest solely on the FCT, urging other states to prepare the necessary funding and logistics for similar emergencies. “This is not the responsibility of the FCT alone. What we have to do for the FCT, we have to do for any other state, just in case,” he added. Nigeria had recorded one confirmed Ebola case at the time of the briefing, involving a woman who travelled from Uganda to Abuja. The case was confirmed on October 20, with 53 primary contacts identified for monitoring. The NCDC said contact tracing and health surveillance were ongoing, with contacts monitored throughout the 21-day incubation period following their last possible exposure.

Alex Onyia @winexviv, As a family member of a Nigerian Dentist, Who earned N500,000 as a Consultant, You know firsthand, what HCWs suffer. 2025: you were quite vocal. 2026: you no longer understand why Doctors & Nurses can’t afford to offer free care to patients. What changed?

Where did we get the medical ethics in Nigeria that allow doctors and nurses to refuse to treat patients simply because they cannot afford to pay? Why should a human being be left to die simply because they have no money? Since when did money become more important than human life?

Took more time to explain nothing. This should be a content for medical students not the public. What is a market woman doing with MOA of amlodipine?

You no go love BC ke?😩😅😅 See you in Nairobi guys!❤️🔥

For Benin? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I don't encourage posting medical content that goes beyond "drink water to help your kidneys" or "check your BP regularly oo." You'll never find any other profession dropping highly technical information on their field like this on social media. This information is your means of livelihood brother.
