The Lagos State Government says it is ready to prosecute
employers and landlords of two Ebola survivors in the State who have lost their
jobs and homes, despite them being declared Ebola-free. The two cases of
stigmatisation had already been referred to the Ministry of Justice for
prosecution.
Commissioner for Health, Dr. Jide Idris disclosed this on
Tuesday at a news conference at the Bagauda Kaltho Press Centre, Alausa, Lagos,
saying that it is sad that some employers and landlords would want to
stigmatise people who were identified with Ebola and survived the disease.
