Infectious Diseases Bill: Nigerian youths blow hurt, reveal what will happen to lawmakers
The youths threatened to embark on all actions that are within legal means to ensure that the bill is not passed.
The Bill was sponsored by the Speaker of the House, Femi Gbajabiamila, and two other members: Dr. Paschal Chigozie Obi, member representing Ideato North /Ideato South Federal constituency of Imo State and Rep. Sununu Tanko Yusuf, member representing Yauri/Shanga/Ngaski Federal Constituency of Kebbi State.
“We wish to state without equivocation that no matter the nomenclature of the bill, we shall resist it unless Nigerians are adequately educated and sensitized about the benefits of giving such unfettered powers to the Nigeria Centre For Disease Control , which includes forcible administering of the COVID-19 vaccine
“We shall resist any attempts by any individual, group of persons or organizations that would want to begin vaccine trials of any kind without first of all going through the right protocols and sensitizing the citizenry.” “Instead of looking for ways to better the lot of these same citizens who were caught up in an unplanned and excruciating lockdown, we are being entertained by such gross bill.
