The commissioner made this known while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria in Lafia.
Mr. Iya said that the blood sample of the suspect had been sent to the Central Public Laboratory in Yaba, Lagos, adding that the state government was waiting for the result.
He said that the state government had stepped up efforts to educate the public on ways to prevent the disease.
According to him, the ministry has partnered with traditional and religious leaders to educate people, mostly rural areas, because they are more likely to have contacts with monkeys.
