This document reports the first detection of camel contagious ecthyma (CCE) in Nigeria, caused by a Parapoxvirus (PPV). Clinical signs included proliferative skin lesions and scabs, with PCR confirming the presence of CPPV in 80% of the samples collected from affected camels in Bauchi, Plateau, and Zamfara states. The study emphasizes the need for further research to understand the epidemiology and genetic diversity of CPPV in Nigeria.
