The Minister of State for Health, Dr Olorunimbe Mamora, says he was absent at the vaccination of Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 members because of his official engagement in Lagos.
While stating that the PTF was aware of his itinerary, Mamora stated that his absence should not be misconstrued as a deliberate attempt to avoid being vaccinated.
Addressing newsmen during the unveiling of the Next Generation Sequencing at Nigeria Institute of Medical Research, Yaba, on Monday, the minister explained that he was unable to participate at the weekly briefing because of the engagement.
“Let nobody speculate that Mamora is running away from vaccination. I am not afraid because I am not one of the peddlers of conspiracy theories. I am a strong advocate of vaccines,” he said.
