BREAKING: Kogi Governor,Yahaya Bello Tells FG Not To Vaccinate Nigerians Against Covid-19
Yahaya Bello has told the federal not to go ahead with mass vaccination of Nigerians against the deadly Covid-19 virus.
CityNews Nigeria reports that the governor of Kogi State,Yahaya Bello has expressed reservations about Covid-19 vaccination and the need to deploy it in Nigeria.
Speaking this morning during ChannelsTV’s ‘Sunrise Daily’ talkshow,Bello said he did not believe Buhari government and the Presidential Task force(PTF) on Covid-19 should go ahead and give Covid-19 vaccines to Nigerians as it’s not necessary.
Governor Bello described current efforts at procuring vaccines as unnecessary, noting that he was not on the same page with the Presidential Task Force(PTF) on COVID-19.
He said: “These are all gimmicks, antics, and merchandising of foreign products. I am not on the same page with them. PTF should not go that route. All this brouhaha, we don’t deserve it. Buhari’s aides should advise him with the fear of God. Let the people be free.”
Asked to share his thoughts on government’s response to the second wave of the corona virus pandemic, Bello, who earlier asked to be excused from discussing the issue, later said he was not about to shift his position on COVID-19.
“I am not about to shift my position. We have no COVID-19 in Kogi State. After one month of working with the Kogi Incidence Management Team, not one single person was confirmed positive.
CityNews Nigeria recalls that Senator Dino Melayo also released a short video clip that went viral on the need for the federal government to desist from deploying the already procured Covid-19 vaccine in Nigeria as it’s very dangerous.He went further to say Nigerian government should not let the ‘West use us(Nigerians) as guinea pigs’.
