An Ebola treatment unit run by China in Liberia has been decommissioned, evidencing an end to the deadly disease in a country where some 4,700 people lost their lives.

President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf on Monday led an official celebration of the country’s victory over Ebola, which killed 4,700 Liberians.
It was an all-day celebration at the Centennial Memorial Pavilion in Monrovia and across the city following Saturday’s declaration.
There was a lot of dancing, with traditional masked dancers entertaining the ecstatic crowd. Men painted in national colors stood motionless and speechless as statute at major intersections in and around the capital.

 

The First Ordinary Session of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Parliament opened today in Abuja, Nigeria, with the induction of new members from Liberia. The xenophobic attacks in South Africa, the plight of African immigrants and elections conducted recently in some member states topped the agenda for discussion.
