In as much as President Muhammadu Buhari and his deputy, Yemi Osinbajo are the first two citizens in the country, they weren’t the first to receive the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.

Rather, these set of health workers did; Dr Ngong Cyprian, Nurse Faith E. Eragbai, Dr Nuru Joseph and Dr Thairu Yunusa.

The health workers received the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine in a brief ceremony held at the treatment centre of the National Hospital, Abuja. The vaccination process was flagged off by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Alhaji Boss Mustapha.

President Buhari and VP Osinbajo today at about noon received the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine at the New Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa.
