US Company Makes Ebola T-Shirt Mocking Nigeria [See Photo]

A company in the US has described the current Ebola outbreak as a ‘hip new craze’ and has designed a souvenir T-Shirt which mocks Nigeria

Ebola is ravaging across West Africa leaving destruction and death in its wake but one American company thinks the disease is a ‘hip new craze’ and has decided to profit from it by selling a “Nigerian Ebola souvenir tee.”

The offending T-Shirt carries an inscription that reads:

“I went to Nigeria, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt and Ebola.”

It was designed By MentalPoo of Salem, New Hampshire and is being sold by Zazzle Apparel for $25.95(N4289.53).

The product description reads:

“Hop on the hip new Ebola craze! Tell everyone you’re a world class traveler AND probably have a deadly communicable disease with this Nigerian souvenir tee!”

The disease, which has infected 2 Americans, killed 9 people in Nigeria before it was contained and the country is set to be declared officially Ebola-free on Monday, October 20.

Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone are still battling to end the scourge which has claimed almost 4500 lives.

Watch The Video Of Boko Haram Leader “Abubakar Shekau” Saying “I AmAlive”

 

“I already had a great song and thought… oh! I have a huge crush on Olamide, why don’t I get him on my song? So I made calls and he was ready to work with me. He’s just too good.”

Well the ‘Ghost Mode’ rapper isn’t the only male star the singer has her eyes on. Responding to whom she would also love to work with in the future, Chee told the radio host:

“Flavour… I mean, he [Flavour] can make beauty out of anything — musically.”

Chee further revealed the video for – No More – featuring Olamide drops at the end of this month and her debut yet-to-be-titled album is looking at a February 2015 release date.

Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau yesterday dismissed Nigerian military claims of his death in a new video obtained by AFP on Thursday and said the militants had implemented strict Islamic law in captured towns.
The new 36-minute video showed Shekau, in combat fatigues and black rubber boots, standing on the back of a pick-up truck and firing an anti-aircraft gun into the air.
Standing in front of three camouflaged vans and flanked by four heavily armed, masked fighters, he then speaks for 16 minutes in Arabic and the Hausa language widely spoken in northern Nigeria.
There was no indication of where or when the video was shot.
“Here I am, alive. I will only die the day Allah takes my breath,” Shekau said in the new video, adding that his group was “running our… Islamic caliphate” and administering sharia punishments.
“Nothing will kill me until my days are over… I’m still alive. Some people asked you if Shekau has two souls.
No, I have one soul, by Allah,” he said, apparently reading from a script.
“It is propaganda that is prevalent. I have one soul. I’m an Islamic student.
“I’m the Islamic student whose seminary you burnt… I’m not dead,” he added
Nigeria’s military however maintained the claim that Shekau was dead and that a man who had been posing as the group’s leader in the videos had been shot dead after fighting with troops in the far northeast.
