The House of Representatives has urged the Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) to initiate surveillance to contain the spread of an unknown disease ravaging Gombe State.
This resolution was a result of a motion of urgent public importance moved by Abdulahi El-Rasheed (PDP, Gombe) on Tuesday during plenary.
In the motion, Mr El-Rasheed said the disease has been spreading around Nafada Local Government Area of the state but that healthcare providers are yet to figure out the nature of the disease.
