Van Vicker: I haven't Contracted Ebola (32887 Views)

naijagossips(m): 5:32pm On Oct 09, 2014

Charming Ghanaian actor, Van Vicker has discredited reports that he has been diagnosed with the deadly Ebola Virus Disease.

An entertainment online platform reported Tuesday that the actor contracted the virus while he was out in Monrovia, Liberia's capital shooting the sequel to the movie ‘Bendu Sudan’.

Other reports on social media also suggested that Vicker has been quarantined and denied access back to Ghana.

But speaking on the Starr Drive, the 'Hands of Time' actor said the reports are disheartening.

“It's annoying. I checked the website and just couldn’t believe my eyes. Why would someone just sit somewhere and just write what they want. Is there nobody that regulates the activities of these websites?” he asked. “I don’t get the story. It’s just not right!”

According to him, he cancelled the Liberia trip last month when he heard the news of the outbreak.

“I read the story, my intention was to go to Liberia to shoot...but I didn’t go”

Vicker who is also of Liberian lineage revealed on the show that he is working with the UN response team based in Ghana to help the situation in his home country.

“My heart does go out to all Liberians and I want them to know I have not abandoned them. I am doing all I can to help them in this time of crisis.”

More than 3,400 people have died in the current Ebola outbreak in West Africa mostly.

In Liberia, the death toll is at least 1,100.

No vex van vicker... Its just an blogger trying to make a living with your story

Mr Actor; Prevention is better than cure. Liberia is with a very big healthy problem now.
But all you can imaging of instead of the solution to curb/eradicate ebola in Liberia, you are there shooting movie for whom to watch?

This is not the time for pleasure, rather it is the time we all hand to destroy the deadly virus and remove it out of this world. after that, we can then think of pleasure.

Pray For Liberia.
Pray for west Africa.
And Pray for God to forgive us our sins because we have all sinned.

God Bless Nigeria.
