The Acting Overseer of the board, Hajiya Hannatu Zailani, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), on Tuesday, in Kaduna, that the vaccination exercise began on April 6 and had reached all the state’s 23 Local Government Areas (LGAs).
“So far, we have completed the first stage of the vaccine,” she stated.
Zailani further explained that the vaccination was based on the directive from the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) and the National Hajj Commission, adding that all the intending pilgrims would be made to receive the second jab, before departing for the Hajj.
She urged the intending pilgrims to always be alert for any new information that may be disseminated on the 2021 Hajj.
