A new mobile application known as Ebola nationwide report centre has made a debut, ITRealms reveals.
The proponent of this latest application and
immediate past president of Information Technology Association of Nigeria
(ITAN) and chief executive officer of Connect Technologies, Chief Chris Uwaje
said the app is coming at very auspicious time because no one knows who will be
the next victim of Ebola, hence the need to help Nigerians aggregate reports
around the Ebola epidemic.
He also said that as concerned Information
Technology (IT) citizens of Nigeria, his organisation is worried over the
epidemic.
“We
are collectively challenged and should now be counted and step forward to
deploy our IT expertise and skills to engage and curtail the Ebola pandemic,”
he told ITRealms.
According to him, in response, the Connect
Technology team has created an Ebola: Database-Engine.
“It
is an App to capture Ebola Report Online Nationwide,” he said.
This
app, he further said, is accessible free of charge, at the Ebola nationwide report centre, urging
information managers to feel free to access it and revert.
He equally enjoined Nigerians to log on, spread the word
and let’s avert the waiting catastrophe by building on relevant key information together.
The mobile app, he pointed out is a mobile software solutions developed
for health and fitness and is compatible with some of the mobile smart devices
in the market as well as in use today, especially in Nigeria.
Meanwhile, ITRealms gaathered that President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has declared the control
and containment of the Ebola virus in Nigeria, a national emergency.
He therefore directed the Federal Ministry of Health to work
in collaboration with the State Ministries of Health, National Centre for
Disease Control (NCDC), National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) among other
relevant agencies to ensure this disease is contained.
