The pox don dey spread ooooo. Over 30 states would soon be affected.
Disease preparedness and responsiveness plus effective surveillance in Nigeria is very poor.

Abia state should please watch the borders very carefully. Atleast if they can't give the residents the dividends of democracy, they should not give them monkeypox.
