Ebola: Jim Iyke Flees Liberia Earlier Than Scheduled

by  Khadijah Thabit 1 min read

Nigerian actor Jim Iyke took yesterday to his Instagram page to say he is leaving Liberia earlier than scheduled over Ebola scare.

So-called Nollywood bad boy, who has been recently in the news in connection with the break-up with his girlfriend Nadia Buari, posted the photo of himself masked with the caption:

"Monrovia, unfinished biz; Leavin tonite. Nt ashamed to admit tis ish scares the Jesus outta me. #Ebola!!!!"

There is definitely nothing to be ashamed of as the deadly virus outbreak has already claimed lives of 672 people in Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone since February, according to WHO.

Yesterday sad news came from Sierra Leone, saying the country's top doctor, who got infected with the Ebola virus while attending his patients, died himself days after having tested positive.

Meanwhile, Nigerians also got alerted last week after the man from Liberia admitted to Lagos hospital with Ebola symptoms passed away.
