The remains of the late Dr. Stella Ameyo Adadevoh who was infected with Ebola after treating Patrick Sawyerr, the Liberian who brought the disease to Nigeria will be buried on Friday, September 12, 2014, as announced by her family.
The burial will be preceded by a memorial service at Holy Cross Cathedral, opposite City Hall, Lagos, by 10am. The burial is coming after family have obtained the ashes of the late doctor, as the corpse was decontaminated and cremated by the Lagos State Government.
Also, a Night of Tributes has been slated for Thursday, September 11, 2014, by 6pm at Harbour Point Event Center, Lagos.
