Patrick Sawyer died in a Lagos hospital on July 25 in Nigeria's first case of Ebola, which has claimed the lives of nearly 1,000 people in West Africa since the start of the year. The 40-year-old, who was to have attended a meeting of the regional bloc ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States), was taken to hospital after arriving in Lagos on a flight from Monrovia via the Togolese capital, Lome. Nigeria -- Africa's most populous nation and the continent's leading economy -- had until last month been spared from Ebola, which has spread alarmingly in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.</p><br clear="all"/>
