The local government is concerned about the mysterious deaths in both communities and has assured residents that they will do everything possible to curb the disease. According to Ononye, the state governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, has given a directive to the state ministry of health to immediately investigate the deaths, identify the cause and effect containment measures.

“Though the outcome of the test on collected samples remains unknown, there is a suspicion of viral haemorrhagic fever or even drug intoxication as the reason for the casualties,” he said.
