I just read this from Proudly Yoruba..."Mr Patrick
Sawyer, the American citizen from Liberia, who
brought the Ebola virus into Yorubaland, has now
been confirmed as a delivery system of a
biological weapon of mass destruction.
According to a review of Close Circuit Television
(CCTV) images at the James Spriggs Payne’s
Airport, Monrovia, by Liberian newspaper, The
New Dawn, Mr. Sawyer, a naturalised American
citizen, looked terribly ill and deliberately avoided
contacts with people just before boarding the Asky
Airline flight that brought him to the Murtala
Muhammed International Airport in Lagos.
More evidence shows his actions were deliberately
malicious. Mr. Sawyer bore a “sad countenance”
like he was troubled and sat alone avoiding bodily
contact with other passengers who came close to
him at the boarding gate of the James Sprigg
Payne’s Airport as he awaits his flight to Lagos.
His strange behaviour and frequent movement up
and down as he eagerly awaits his Asky flight had
prompted the security camera operator to focus
on him. In the video, Patrick could be seen
avoiding physical contacts with airport employees
and other passengers during the check in process.
Airport video footage, also showed Mr. Sawyer
lying flat on his stomach on the floor in the
corridor of the airport and seemed to be in
“excruciating pain.” The footage showed Mr.
Sawyer preventing people from touching him.
According to the The New Dawn reporter who
reviewed the video, he even snubbed an
Immigration officer who initiated a friendly
gesture of a handshake moments before he
boarded the airplane.
According to Lagos State Commissioner for Health,
Jide Idris, Mr Sawyer who was a consultant for the
Liberian Ministry of Finance, arrived Lagos on July
23 to attend an ECOWAS convention in Calabar.
He became terribly ill on the airplane just before
it touched down in Lagos. Some ECOWAS officials
and airport staff helped him out of the airplane
and rushed him to First Consultant Medical
Centre, Obalende, where he died two days later.
FrontPage Africa’s publisher, Rodney Sieh, later
told PREMIUM TIMES by telephone from the
Liberian capital, Monrovia, that his paper’s
extensive reporting on the matter showed clearly
Mr. Sawyer knew he had contacted the Ebola
virus before travelling to Yorubaland.
“He definitely knew he was sick and it was curious
that he still decided to travel,” Mr. Sieh said. His
sister had died from the virus and he most likely
had contact with her.”
He refused airport's officials to touch him in
Liberia but deliberately allowed airports officials
in Lagos to have close contact with him. He
should be investigated as a terrorist and treated
as one. He should be posthumously charged and
tried. He is already responsible for the death of a
Yoruba citizen, we only hope that his other
victims survive the infection without spreading the
virus
