Tambuwal Takes First Jab Of AstraZeneca Vaccine
Sokoto state governor, Aminu Tambuwal has taken the first jab of the Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine.
Tambuwal has called on residents in the state to make themselves available for the vaccination of Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine to protect themselves against COVID-19.
He made the call shortly after taking the first shot of the vaccine at the Sokoto state government house, joining a growing list of State Governors who have publicly backed the vaccination process.
He said evidence across the world has shown that the efficacy of the vaccine far outweighed the risk and therefore people should ensure they get vaccinated to keep themselves safe.
