India is not allowing the AstraZeneca vaccine they produced to be exported,” Mr Lawan complained on Monday while speaking to journalists. The senate president said he wanted Nigerian scientists to collaborate with other scientists worldwide to develop a local but effective Covid-19 vaccine. “As for Covid-19, I believe that our country, Nigeria, should have some resources for our scientists to collaborate with other scientists across the globe, to also have our own vaccine,” said Mr Lawan.
