PDP Blames Buhari As Nigeria Is Excluded From WHO COVID-19 Vaccines

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Saturday said that Nigeria’s reported exclusion, by the World Health Organization, WTO, from the list of nations to receive COVID-19 vaccines following the inability of the government to provide vaccine storage requirement is a vindication of its stance of the failure of the Buhari administration.

The party described as shameful and unpardonable that a nation as important as Nigeria could be excluded from COVID-19 vaccine intervention of the World Health Organization just because “the APC administration, in its incompetence and corruption, was not able to provide the minimum standard requirement of vaccine storage at the requisite -70 degrees Celsius, despite the billions of naira it claims had gone into the COVID-19 effort,” the PDP said in a statement issued by party spokesman, Kola Ologbodinyan.

“This embarrassing situation confirms our position that the APC administration is completely incapable of carrying out simple governance tasks, which is the reason our nation is in her present social and economic dire straits.

“Nigerians can now see that the claims of commitment by the APC administration are mere media hypes that add no value beyond announcement of figures of infected persons, deaths, recoveries, discharges and issues of local protocols without decisive effort towards epidemiology, researches, production of equipment, therapeutics and other technical requirements, such as vaccine storage to stave off the pandemic in our country.

“It is indeed sad that because of the corruption and incompetence of the APC administration, our dear nation, which was once a clear continental leader and global competitor in all fields, has fallen so low that it cannot provide simple vaccine storage in a time of pandemic.

Against this ugly backdrop, our party restates our call for immediate dissolution of the PTF on COVID-19 to pave way for a concerted private sector driven effort in the fight against the pandemic, since the Buhari administration has failed the nation.

“The PDP also calls on President Muhammadu Buhari to accept the ineffectiveness of his administration and seek help from more capable hands as well as adopt the PDP proactive model in fighting the dreaded Ebola Virus disease, as a sure measure to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic.”
