A lady identified as Adetutu Balogun has taken to Twitter to call out the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) for ignoring her friend, Femi, who is now deceased.
According to Adetutu, they had tried several hours to reach the NCDC after her friend started showing symptoms, all to no avail.
Femi eventually passed away without being attended to, and now everyone in Femi’s house risks being a victim of the virus, as they all had contact with him prior to his death.
Tutu also expressed her disappointment about Nigeria being unable to evacuate patients at only 2000 cases.
See her tweets below:

In another Story Minister Onyema: Buhari Govt Won’t End Relationship With South Africa Despite Attacks
The Federal Government on Friday declared that it won’t severe diplomatic relationship with South Africa despite the renewed xenophobic attacks on Nigerians.
Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama made the disclosure when he appeared before the senate committee on Diaspora at the National Assembly.
Onyeama said taking such action would not be in the interest of Nigerians in South Africa, adding that Nigeria would consider other options apart from diplomatic ties severance, to resolve the ongoing crisis.
He said: “We are not thinking to the stage of diplomatic ties called off. There are various options. We are not by any means at a stage where we are breaking diplomatic relations with South Africa.
“We just met with the senate committee to review the situation with regard to South Africa and we looked at all the possible options we analyzed the possible causes and agreed on a road map going forward.”
The Minister also disclosed that the special envoy President Muhammadu Buhari sent to South Africa would return to the country on Saturday.
