Buhari, Osinbajo receive COVID-19 Vaccine jabs

President Muhammadu Buhari has finally received the AstraZeneca vaccine, a day after the Federal Government launched the vaccination exercise in the country.

He took the vaccine jab on Saturday at the new Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

The vaccine was administered to the President by his chief personal physician, Dr Sanusi Raafindadi, in the presence of the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, and some members of the Federal Executive Council (FEC).

Shortly after President Buhari took the vaccine jab, his vice Professor Osinbajo also received the vaccine which was also administered to him by his chief personal physician, Dr. Nicholas Audifferen.

President Buhari and his vice Professor Osinbajo have urged Nigerians to come out to get the Vaccine.

Both leaders were later presented with electronic cards containing the details of their vaccinations by the Executive Director of the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA), Dr Faisal Shuaib.

 



Others who witnessed the vaccination of the President and his vice were members of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) and the Director-General of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), Dr Chikwe Ihekweazu.
