Mrs Tinubu spoke on Tuesday during the national launch of the introduction of the HPV Vaccine into the routine immunization schedule of the National Immunization Program in Abuja.
She emphasised that the introduction of the HPV vaccine into Nigeria’s routine immunization schedule represents a significant stride in their mission to safeguard the health and future of the nation’s women, ultimately paving the way for a generation free from cervical cancer. Addressing the gathering earlier, the Coordinating Minister for Health and Social Welfare, Prof. Mohammed Ali Pate, stressed the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine, which is already in use in several countries worldwide.
Prominent figures such as the Sultan of Sokoto, Abubakar Sa’ad III, and the President of the Christian Association of Nigeria , Archbishop Daniel Okoh, voiced their support for the vaccination campaign.
