The two Nigerians returned from Lagos recently, and experienced fever and other symptoms that triggered medical officials to immediately place them into quarantine, while samples of their blood were sent to Hamburg for urgent evaluation.
Officials are working to identify all persons whom they came into contact with after their arrival.
Blood tests have been sent to Hamburg's Bernhard-Nocht Institute, with results expected soon.
"The risk that the two are actually suffering from Ebola is, however, classified by doctors as not very high," reassured the Governor.
