Nigerian being treated in Benin for Ebola

 Cotonou -A hospital in Benin Republic is treating a Nigerian man suspected of having contracted Ebola and
authorities have sent a sample of his blood to Senegal for testing, Health Minister Dorothée Gazard said
on state television on Thursday.
The case is unconfirmed but Gazard's announcement triggered widespread fears in the capital Cotonou.
Many people said they would stock up on food and stop eating at popular roadside food stalls to avoid
possible infection, witnesses said.
