Ebola Or Not, Osun Osogbo Festival Must Hold, Devotees Insist

The Osun Osogbo Festival 2014 Advisory Committee yesterday insisted that the Ebola virus does not pose any threat to the celebration of the annual festival. The Chief Festival Consultant, Mr Ayo Olumoko, said the federal government did not at any time contact organizers of the festival to discuss possible cancellation, hence, it would go on as planned. Mr. Olumoko noted that only the state government had sought the understanding of Osun devotees and the organizers on the need to put crowd-control measures in place to curtail an outbreak of the Ebola virus.
