COVID-19: FG set to take action against Nigerians refusing vaccination

The Federal Government has said it may sanction eligible Nigerians who refuse to take the coronavirus vaccination.
This was made known by the Executive Director of the National Primary Healthcare Development Agency (NPHCDA), Faisal Shuaib, at a news briefing in Abuja on Tuesday.
Shuaib said the government may “apply the basic rule of law” against such people because their actions will be endangering the lives of other people.
“The Presidential Steering Committee and the Federal Ministry of Health is mapping out ways of making vaccines more available to all Nigerians.
Recall that Governor Obaseki of Edo state had last week mandated people of the State to take the vaccine.
He warned that, as from September 15, anyone who has not been vaccinated will not be allowed into public places such as banks and worship centres.
