Presidency, Ezekwesili, Others Pay Tribute To Dr. AdadevohThe Presidency has described late Dr. Ameyo Shade Stella Adadevoh, who died of the Ebola Virus disease contracted from the Liberian-American, Patrick Sawyer as, ‘a real Nigerian hero.’ Special Assistant to President Jonathan on New Media, Reno Omokri, in a tweet via his handle @renoomokri wrote, “No greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends-John 15:13. Rest in Peace #DrAdadevohaRealNigerianhero”. Former Minister for Education, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, in her tribute described the late Adadevoh as an embodiment of godly doctor. Kwami Adadevoh (@KwamiAdadevoh), the late doctor’s cousin in his tweet wrote, “I’d like to thank you all for your prayers. Sadly my darling cousin has been called home. She has finished her course and now rests with God” Meanwhile, Dr. Adadevoh, who passed away on August 18, 2014, reportedly saved the country from potential epidemic of the Ebola Virus Disease, EVD, when she forcefully restricted Mr. Sawyer to his bed after he tried to remove the drip administered on him. She is not the first to have died of Ebola in Nigeria, but her heroic performance during the treatment of the late Sawyer, made concerned and appreciative citizens to agitate for her immortalization. Observers expressed believe that if not for her action, many Nigerian lives would have become very vulnerable, because if Sawyer had succeeded in forcing himself out of the hospital, it would have been difficult to trace those who had contact with him.

Her Father, Prof. Babatunde Kwaku Adadevoh, who was a grandson of Macaulay, was also a physician. However, her death doesn’t mean that the disease is triumphing in Nigeria as it would be recalled that on August 18, 2014, four people comprising two male doctors, a female nurse and a patient, infected with Ebola Virus Disease were discharged from the quarantine unit of the Emergency Operation Centre, EOC, at the Mainland Hospital, Yaba, Lagos.
