Dr. Sanni Aliyu, the National Coordinator, Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19, says there is no provision for COVID-19 vaccine for 160million Nigerians as the Federal Government prepares to roll out the jab for citizens and other residents across the country, to combat the deadly virus in 2021.
Dr. Aliyu, said the vaccine will be free when the administration begins in the New Year but with a proviso: Nigerians and other residents will pay for “operations and other logistics associated with it”. He did not say how much the operations and logistics will cost but disclosed that only 20 per cent of the number, 40million, will get the vaccine in 2021 and another 20 to 40 per cent in the next two years.
