The state Deputy Governor, Baba Tella, the governor’s wife, Hajiya Aisha Bala Mohammed, members of the state executive council as well as other top government officials also received the second dose of the vaccine.
He, however, expressed displeasure with the lukewarm attitude exhibited by the state’s Christian community to the COVID-19 vaccination exercise. “I am appealing to them to come over and let us discuss the way forward. I don’t want them to blame me if they are denied a journey to perform religious obligations.
Governor Mohammed expressed appreciation to traditional rulers in the state as well as the Council of Ulama for cooperating with the state government in achieving the success of the first phase of the vaccination. The commissioner who gave an update on the first phase of the COVID-19 vaccination in the state said the number vaccinated represented 84% of the targeted population of frontline health workers, government officials, traditional and religious leaders.
