      CNN will never mention this. They hate the idea of a "third world country" or any other country for that matter to successfully get rid of the epidemic before their beloved America does

    Excellent news. Please note that this is not the time to throw away the lesson of:

    1. prompt response to medical emergencies
    2. high hygiene levels (including hands washing periodically)
    3. implementing proper border control mechanisms

    Thank you.

    Basic lessons from this Ebola challenge
    1. Prevention is better than cure
    2. Behaviour change is very important in getting positive results; see as people dey use hand sanitizer do body cream....lol

    I hope we keep up with our hygiene level despite the fact that we are now Ebola-free

    This one moment when one is proud to be a Nigerian. Thumbs up to all those who made it possible but as far as the disease is rampant in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea the country is not safe. The world is a global village.

    I watched a documentary of this on BBC news, it's interesting how the white man portrays Africa as a whole.

    I pray that Nigeria can sustain this, if there's one thing they achieved this year, its the eradication of this deadly virus on their soul.
