over 200 Students at Ekiti Federal Govt. College Hospitalized for Cholera




No fewer than 200 students of the Federal Government Girls’ College in Efon Alaaye, Ekiti State , have  been hospitalized for the outbreak of a disease suspected to be cholera epidemic in the school.
The development had triggered serious panic across the state, as parents whose wards are in the school were rushing to the school in droves to identify the victims.
It was reliably confirmed that signs had started manifesting  since October 10, when some students were vomiting  and stooling
uncontrollably, which sparked up fear among the staff and students.
When the matter was going beyond proportion, the principal, Mrs Grace Ogunyomi was said to have reported  it to the state government on Wednesday for prompt action
