Following the sacrifice and gallant fight, late Dr  Stella Ameyo Adadevoh put up to rescue the rest of country from a more devastating outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD), the federal government Friday said plans are underway to honour Adadevoh.

Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu stated this when Association of Private Medical Practitioners visited him in Abuja on the way forward to stem the spread of the virus.

Chukwu while commending the efforts of private medical practitioners said the role of the First Consultant Hospital and late Dr Adadevoh was very crucial in ensuring that the virus does not go viral as it has spread in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.

He explained that the role of private medical practitioners have become sacrosanct, adding; “particularly now when public medical practitioners,  doctors are on strike.”
