Three states have reacted to the latest update on the performance of the states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory in the mass vaccination campaign against the coronavirus pandemic.
According to the statistics, Bayelsa State has only vaccinated 0.69 per cent of its targeted population while Akwa Ibom State has only done 0.92 per cent. Mr Ikechukwu, who said he was surprised about the result, insisted that his state’s primary health care development agency is “leading the process of the vaccination campaign across the state”, adding that “they are working very hard to get the people vaccinated.”
“I need to know where this information came from because we have signed up to the mass vaccination with a target of 50 per cent of our people being covered. We are massively vaccinating in different places not just in the health centres.”Reacting to the development, the chief press secretary to Governor Godwin Obaseki, Crusoe Osagie, said he doubted the authenticity of the ranking.
Mr Shuaib added that almost 10 million eligible persons have been fully vaccinated against the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in the country.
