Ahmadu Fintiri
Governor Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa State Thursday took the COVID-19 vaccine jab but he said residents are free to decide whether they want to the vaccine or not.
“We have taken it, and it is safe and we are encouraging our citizens to go ahead and take the vaccine, but it is not compulsory,” Fintiri said after being administered the COVID-19 vaccine at the Yola Specialist Hospital.
“We are only encouraging them to take because that is the only way out to keep their health and that of their families safe.”
He, however, expressed that the vaccine would reduce the threat posed by the dreaded virus.
