Nigeria had been announced with Ebola in October 2014 from the World Heath Organization, right after 42 days had passed considering that tests showed that the infected person no further experienced the disorder.
EBOLA- The Nigerian government on Wednesday said it was acting to prevent the spread of Ebola from Democratic Republic of Congo where an outbreak of the disease has killed 17 people.
The Ebola virus was first identified in the 1970s in DR Congo in a village near the Ebola River, which gave a name to the disease.
"WHO will work closely with health authorities and partners to support the national response". Serge Ngaleto, the director of Bikoro's main hospital said it had received four new suspected cases on Thursday, including two nurses who had treated others showing symptoms.
"After contact, the nurses began showing signs ..."
There have been two confirmed cases of the Ebola virus disease in the DRC, WHO Deputy Director-General of Emergency Preparedness and Response Emergency Preparedness and Response Peter Salama told Anadolu Agency in Geneva on Friday.
Ngaleto said of all cases so far reported, seven were now in the hospital in Bikoro.

Experimental vaccines and treatments for Ebola are under development, but they have not yet been fully tested for safety or effectiveness.
Ebola is best known and most feared for the internal and external bleeding it can cause in its victims, owing to damage done to blood vessels.
After the initial symptoms, patients may develop diarrhoea, vomiting, stomach pain and reduced kidney or liver function.
"If we see a town of that size infected with Ebola, then we are going to have a major urban outbreak", he warned.
Matches against the most endangered nations such as Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone were all cancelled at the time and fans who attended Nigeria's match against DR Congo that year underwent temperature checks.
"I want to assure Kenyans and all travelers to Kenya that there is no Ebola case reported in the country, and adequate measures have been put to place to ensure that the Ebola virus is not introduced or imported to the Country", said Balala.
Congo's long experience of Ebola and its vast, remote geography mean outbreaks are often localised and relatively easy to isolate and snuff out.
