Gunmen in Kenya this morning Dec 2nd attacked a quarry at Mandera town in North Kenya, killing 36 Christians. According to multiple eye witnesses, the gunmen stormed the place, ordered all the non-Muslims, about 36 of them, to step away from the Muslims and then shot them all dead. One witness told Reuters that four of the victims had been beheaded.  

According to local media reports, the unknown gunmen suspected to be members of the Somalia based al-Shabab group that killed 28 people in an attack on a bus targeting non-Muslims in the same area last week, attacked the quarry workers very early this morning while they were sleeping.

Health: Federal government sends 504 health workers to ebola affected countries via @iam_bobokanbai

About 250 health workers, out of the 504 volunteers trained by the Federal Government in collaboration with the African Union Commission, will be leaving for Ebola-stricken countries on Thursday.

The Director, Nigerian Centre for Diseases and Control, Abuja, Prof. Abdulsalamin Nasidi, who spoke at the opening ceremony of the two-day departure training for the first batch of the volunteers in Lagos on Monday, said that the Federal Government would dispatch the second batch of 254 health workers in January.

Nasidi stated that the health team consists of doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other cadre of health professionals from Lagos and Rivers states and the Federal Capital Territory..... (Continue)

He stated that the AUC in a Memorandum of Understanding with the Federal Government would be providing life insurance coverage, allowances and repatriation and evacuation services for the health volunteers while working in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.

He said,” The first batch of health workers would be going on Thursday. The next batch would be leaving in January. All together we will be sending 504 troops to help contain Ebola in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia. Lagos also volunteered 28 experts. Almost 98 per cent of them were part of the team that helped contain Ebola in Nigeria. So, we are prepared.

“The Federal Government and the AU have a MoU on this mission. Their allowances, life insurance and disabilities coverage would be covered by the AU. The Federal Government has also opened up Ebola treatment centres in Lagos, Port-Harcourt and Abuja for any worker that may need to be evacuated back to Nigeria. However, we are hoping for zero casualties.”

Also at the training for the volunteers were the Lagos and Rivers states Commissioners for Health, who implored the volunteers to cooperate with experts that are already working in those countries.

The Rivers State Commissioner for Health, Dr. Tamuno Parker, also said that over 100 volunteers were drawn from the state, adding that the state government had also donated 5,000 personal protective equipment to assist the Federal Government on the health mission.
