Synopsis

President Muhammadu Buhari urged world leaders and global health institutions to follow a regime of enabling access to the COVID-19 vaccines, admonishing that sidelining countries in terms of reach will undermine the entire effort for safety. President Buhari says export restrictions that encourage needless hoarding of vaccines need to be lifted while welcoming the pledges by industrialized countries to share vaccines. The President says the pledges should be fulfilled in a timely manner, appreciating some countries, like France, that have donated vaccines to developing countries.
