This always happens in the Mango season and it always starts in the North. It should be controlled before it spreads to other parts of the South and awareness should be created. Hand washing and proper hygiene should be observed. 1 Like |

Ok..... Yesterday it was Ondo (Ikele local government area), today it is Ebonyi (cholera related). What has the PDP led federal government of Nigeria done to improve the health predicaments in the South East part of the country? OHANEZE please can you clarify if this government has really assisted in reducing the water-borne diseases prevalent in this region. We need answers...ordinary cholera is killing people in their dozens. Boiled water, drink treated water and basic hygiene would reduce the threat posed by this health related insurgent. This government sef.... 1 Like |

It's a pity lives have already been lost. In addition to what the government and the hospitals are doing, people should know that PERSONAL HYGIENE CAN GO A LONG WAY IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS. |

The problem with Enugu and Ebonyi state is that they don't have good water supply. |

I served in ebonyi from march 2008 to february 2009, i must tell u dat it was a terrible experience! I am sure that there are many more cases of cholera death every day than what the authorities announce! Corpers were initially having our bath with sachets of "pure" water and drinking same until our money ran out! We had to walk for about 45mins to buy d bag of pure water for hundred naira/bag! When d stress was killing, we decided to dig a big hole during d rainy season so that d water from d rain can accumulate for us to store and use after d rain, alas, the villagers used d storage facility as latrine! We saw different shades of faeces around d improvised "well" it was hell! Many of us went for days without having our bath! NGUzU was another hell on earth! I think the government in Ebonyi have alot to do! Am sure many more pple are dieing of cholera there! 6 Likes |

Getting portable water has always been a problem in that part of the country, all the same Cholera outbreak can be well managed by basic personal hygeiene and healthy practices on the part of the people, the govt. On its own side must provide stable means of water supply and treatment. 1 Like |
