Around 100,000 portions of the Pfizer/BioNTech immunization are normal in the nation toward the finish of January.
Talking at the media preparation of the official team (PTF) on COVID-19, held in Abuja on Thursday, Shuaib said managing the immunization on live TV is essential for endeavors to advance mindfulness.
He added that bleeding edge wellbeing laborers would likewise be given need on accepting the antibody when the portions show up Nigeria.
"We will get a kick out of the chance to see a circumstance where Mr. president, the VP, the SGF, basic pioneers come and take the immunization in the full glare of general society to show that these antibodies are protected. So we need to make arrangements for those," he said.
"Indeed, even in created nations, what we have seen is that separated from the prioritization of wellbeing laborers, you need to likewise recognize basic pioneers that you don't need them to be cleared off by the infection. For instance, in fighting, on the off chance that you need to crush your adversaries, you search for explicit pioneers, skippers, the commanders; when you execute them, at that point the troopers will get frail.
"In this way, however much as could be expected, you would prefer not to likewise leave your chiefs powerless against COVID-19, it would mean you not like to organize government officials; that isn't right. I underlined during the last preparation that we will organize our wellbeing laborers since they are the ones in direct contact with cases in seclusion units."
