"The strategy that our chairman is deploying is the strategy to respond and to commend government for the effort, and to show that all Nigerians are concerned. We will continue to discuss with the ministry about what additional support can be offered.
“And we also have been approached by several parties who are interested in partnering with the government, and we would continue that discussion.”Odaga relayed Dangote’s call to all Nigerians to join the federal government in the fight against Ebola, expressing optimism that the disease would be contained.

Watching Mo'Hits disband is the saddest moment in my career - Sunday Are
In a recent interview with City People magazine, popular artiste manager, Sunday
Are, who manages stars like Omawunmi, D'Prince and others, said seeing
Mo'Hits disband was the saddest moment in his career. He said he helped
build the Mo'Hits brand and managed them
for a while but he eventually left and not long after he left, they
disintegrated
"Yes, I helped in building the brand, then I decided to focus on other things. There was no issue between us, we ran Mo'Hits like a family thing and we are still family. They are like my brothers. It was shortly after I left that Mo'Hits disbanded. Seeing the Mo'Hits that I helped grow go defunct was the saddest moment in my career. I waded in and tried to resolve their differences so as not to let the name die but I was made to realize it has happened and there was nothing anybody can do about it. I am happy that they are doing great individually and they are still friends. I would love to see them work together again. That is my prayer" he said
