Residents say the disease broke out three days ago and spread rapidly around the community, killing its victim within 24 hours. "They said death by an unknown disease in Ode Irelein Ondo state, is not a disease as believed, it's actually a spiritual attack in the village meted on some indigenes in that locality who invaded the village shrine. The god became angry with them, striking all those people who have hands in the act.”
Experts say preliminary reports from victims revealed neurologic clinical symptoms: blindness, and loss of consciousness. But the State Health Commissioner, Dayo Adeyanju, put the number of dead victims at 12 while briefing newsmen in Akure, said preliminary investigations showed that the disease is not Ebola “as it does not manifest any of its symptoms, but it attacks the central nervous system of the victims”.   
The Federal Ministry of Health, the World Health Organisation, and the National Centre for Disease Control had been alerted of the outbreak.
