The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) says it has recorded no new Ebola case since confirming the first imported infection on October 20, 2026.

NCDC said that 34 of the 62 contacts identified in connection with the case had completed their individual 21-day monitoring period as of November 9, while the remaining 28 were still under follow-up.

The NCDC Director-General,Jide Idris, gave the update on Tuesday, three weeks after the country confirmed an imported case of Bundibugyo Virus Disease in a traveller from Uganda.

Idris also said that being identified as a contact does not mean that a person has contracted Ebola.
