This man is indeed a brave man. The fiance of late Justina Obi Ejelonu,
the 29-year old nurse who was part of the team that treated Patrick
Sawyer but gave up the ghost recently has spoken. Dennis said when
Justina contracted the disease, she was with him and he was solely
responsible for her. When she fell ill, I took her to the hospital. She
vomited severally on me on our way and also collapsed. I had to carry
her when she collapsed till we got to there. She was two months
pregnant, he said. When she tested positive she was 'abandoned' at the
hospital and left to her fate, but I occasionally went in to take care
of her, he narrated.
Fourteen days after Justina died, Dennis had
high temperature, and instead of panicking, he boldly turned himself in
to the treatment center for observation. An initial test led the center
to quarantine him, and a second test came positive leading the center
to admit him to treatment. A third test was however carried out by
international affiliates of the center and the tests came out negative.
Dennis was yesterday discharged and given a clearance certificate to go
home. Really happy for him.
