Nigeria has confirmed its first case of Ebola, prompting the Africa CDC to request urgent support from the international community. The confirmed infection was reported in the Federal Capital Territory, which includes Abuja. The agency says wider assistance is needed to contain the outbreak and prevent further transmission. Nigerian health authorities now face the task of tracing contacts and isolating the patient. International help would strengthen laboratory capacity, disease surveillance, staffing and infection-control work at health facilities. The case has made the response a test of regional coordination and national preparedness.
