More On Patrick Sawyer! He Deceived Us, ECOWAS To Travel To Nigeria -Liberian Minister

    Patrick Sawyer, the late Liberian-American, who brought the
    deadly Ebola virus to Nigeria, deceived and manipulated the Liberian government
    and the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, to enable him travel
    to Nigeria, an official, who admitted approving Mr. Sawyer’s travel, has said.
    Sebastian Muah, who until recently was the Liberian Deputy
    Minister of Finance for Fiscal Affairs, said in an email to Premium Times that
    the late Mr. Sawyer deceived the Liberian government into believing that he was
    “Ebola Free’.

    Mr. Muah was responding to this newspaper’s exclusive report
    on Tuesday indicating that he, on behalf of the Liberian government, cleared
    Mr. Sawyer to head to Nigeria even when the administration knew he was under
    observation for Ebola. In his response, the former minister said Mr. Sawyer
    told his ministry that he had no contact with his younger sister who died of
    the disease on July 8 and that he had voluntarily subjected himself for testing
    which showed he was free of Ebola.
    Mr. Muah said even to secure employment as a Liberian
    Government official, a position that qualified him for the trip, Mr. Sawyer
    lied that he had quit his employment as Public Health Manager of ArcelorMittal,
    an iron ore mining company in the country.
    The former minister said Mr. Sawyer told the same lies to
    ECOWAS, and at a point, sidestepped the Liberian Minister of Finance, dealing
    directly with ECOWAS on matters concerning the trip.
    On the whole, Mr. Muah blamed the slip that enabled Mr.
    Sawyer to travel to Nigeria on a “broken system of communication” within the
    Liberian bureaucracy.
