The Presidency says President Muhammad Buhari is not having any side effects from the COVID-19 vaccine he took on Saturday.

Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicly, Garba Shehu in a statement said:

“In response to press enquiries, I like to assure all citizens and to dispel fears and misconceptions about the safety of the vaccine administered on President Muhammadu Buhari and the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, on Saturday.

“After he got his jab, the President felt normal and went about doing his job. If there are side effects that follow, we will be open about that but so far there is nothing of a side effect, serious or mild on the President. He is carrying on as normal.

“We hope this will help to send a strong message among the people, especially those grappling with hesitancy about the efficacy and safety of the vaccine.”
