PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari and Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo will on Saturday receive the COVID-19 vaccine publicly.

The decision to have the President and Vice President receive the COVID-19 vaccination in the open was to correct the misgivings in some quarters over the efficacy of the vaccine.

The Executive Director of the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA), Faisal Shuaib, disclosed this at the second edition of the State House weekly briefing.

The second edition was focused on Nigeria’s Response to the COVID-19 pandemic, in the last one year, and especially the National Vaccination Response.

Shuaib said that the President and the Vice President will receive the Oxford/AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine on Saturday after some frontline health workers are vaccinated on Friday.

He also said that Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 (PTF) and Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Boss Mustapha will also receive his first dose of the vaccine on the same day.

Also speaking, the Director-General, of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, NCDC, Dr Chikwe Iheakwazu, said that as much as vaccines provide some very important light, the response of – testing, surveillance, protecting health workers, investing in national health security, driving risk communications, etc. has to continue.

Director General of National Agency for Food Drugs and istration Control (NAFDAC), Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, also warned that falsified COVID-19 vaccines are already in the global market.

She said: “That’s why NAFDAC is focusing on track-and-trace, to ensure no infiltration of substandard vaccines in supply chain. Traceability is very important; we can trace the vaccines from airport to the patient.”

The Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire, warned thar as a country, Nigeria has been lucky so far but, “we must not stretch our luck. We must continue with our non-pharmaceutical measures.

“We must look at vaccine as a game changer, but make no mistake that it’s a replacement for everything else. It is an additional strategy. Vaccines are an addition to the existing Response, not a Replacement.

Which is how it is done in other countries. Will surely watch theirs on Saturday.

Leadership by example. Covid19 vaccine is for everybody, don't let the opportunity you by.

The headline was more like "BREAKING: Buhari, Osinbajo To Be ASSASSINATED Publicly On Saturday"





Welcome development
I will be waiting for my own dose.

Leadership is all about leading by example. Once the number one and two citizens are vaccinated, efforts to make the vaccines available to all should speed up.

A year ago this was our last normal week and nobody knew it

#Covide19 changed how we relate and do things. . .


LEADERSHIP BY EXAMPLE

Genesis 49:19

Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.


Gad Is the father of ERI in the Bible Who is the Father Of UMUERI In Anambra State the Ancestral Home Of The IGBOs.

Therefore this prophecy talks about the emergence of the Igbo Nation. Ist and 2nd Civil war.

Am not interested in this Vaccine

OK

This is very good. It's the normal practice everywhere in the world. Leadership by example.

That's normal as it is being done in other countries. Leadership by example

Covid19 vaccine is for everybody, don't let the opportunity you by, President and Vice President are showing a very good example.

leading by example is one of the watch ward of being a leader.

Recall the interview the VP heard with Biotech August last year where he asked the representatives to prioritised Nigeria in the vaccine distribution.... it is known that we are indeed placed on priority... COVAX had plan to distribute 320,000 Pfizer vaccine to African Countries and Nigeria will be given 100,000 out of it so later COVAX said instead of giving us the 100,000 that will reach out to just 50,000 Nigerians, why not collect 16 million Astrazeneca instead. so this is how it went down. we are expecting the rest and hope that it work for us.

They are to lead by good examples

Leadership by example

Buhari nko
Hahahahhahaha
We all know he is no more

Whether they do it in the open or hidden, we the Concerned Stubborn Nigerians (CSN) don't give a hoot about a vaccine that is purported to checkmate reproduction. We still have our target of shooting Nigerian population to 300Million before 2030.


The Western World can keep their favour to themselves, until our local researchers in Nigeria develop a vaccine that suits us better.
