The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) has assessed the country's preparedness for an Ebola outbreak at approximately 59 percent, indicating that while significant progress has been made, complete readiness is not achievable. The NCDC emphasized the importance of ongoing preparation due to the dynamic nature of disease outbreaks. Additionally, the agency highlighted the risk posed by Nigeria's porous borders, which could facilitate the spread of the virus. Continuous efforts are necessary to enhance the nation's response capabilities and mitigate potential threats.
