The Federal Government has said that Nigerians will not be mandated to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
Minister of State for Health, Dr Olorunnimbe Mamora disclosed while speaking on Arise Tv, that although the government is capable of vaccinating everyone, no Nigerian will be forced.
”Nothing will be made mandatory. It’s optional. The choice is yours. Nobody will be forced to take any vaccine,” he said.
When asked if it might become mandatory later, Mamora said, “If that happens, it would not be a decision of Nigeria.”
