Why? This is injustice. They should stop forcing people to accept vaccination especially when there is a strong indication that there's more than meets the eye with these 'free, by force' gifts.

@Onyegecha, is there actually any "more than meet the eyes" in this vaccination and immunization? It's this kind of very wrong and obnoxious belief system that has causes the avoidable death and deformation of many kids from the northern part of Nigeria. Have you ever seen these children on the street corners begging alms and the kind of deformations they carry? I rather think this refusal is costing the north a lot and should be stopped by all means. Live is too difficult for able-bodied people not to talk of people with disabilities!

Instead of Babangida Aliyu concerning himself with issues like these, he is busy fighting GEJ over 2015.

Make dem arrest jhor.beta tin dem dae form

Chai! I am surprised people like you with this kind of reasoning still exist in our modern age. SMH

Charge them for Attempt murder or Attempt suicide!

na by force? End time thngs

In this time and age people are still refusing vaccination. Na wah oh

... He should leave them, afterall several cases have been read in dailies where the vaccine where something else. Plot by world leader to control population.

that is why most of dem are disabled and they keep begging for money. instead of them to do d right thing now,they wont. but they would rather beg for money when its too late for them

Good news!.... They should perish and die for all I care. Death is a consequence when your religion teaches u dat education is a "Harm".

This is extremely bad, Nigerians should riot over that. People should not be forced to accept something which they do not want. Nobody should be imposed upon.
This is one of those injustice that abounds in the African society. When it is about homosexuality or some other evil idea you will see Africans jumping up with the unreasonable chants like “it is their life let them do what they want with it, it is their body not yours” now all those chants does not apply. How 5tupid are we as a people?

Of course there is more that always meets the eye on such occasions and the northern guys have good reason to fear, their reasons has been substantiated over and over with many occurrences all over Africa and south America.
Nigerians should really riot over this.

ifyfaith: that is why most of dem are disabled and they keep begging for money. instead of them to do d right thing now,they wont. but they would rather beg for money when its too late for them

Honestly speaking! You see many of the polio infected grown men crawling like reptiles in the streets of Lagos begging for alms. There are many of them at Awolowo road, Ikeja. They shouldn't be blamed at all, they are only victims of the ignorance of their parents. smh

its their rite to refuse any medical care they are not sure of.............thy need more enlitenemnt and education on d benefits of d vaccination not arrest and intimidation by sm id'iot pholice

christ is comin: ... He should leave them, afterall several cases have been read in dailies where the vaccine where something else. Plot by world leader to control population.

Why is that plot not working in the South? Friend, pls dont spread this illiterate propaganda on worldwide web!

Make sense

Ndi Awusa nkea ?
They should be dealt with severly because they are endangering the lives of these innocent children .
Polio is very deadly...?

Could you imagine? Now govt has to use force to get people to accept something that is of use to them.

Nigerians won't seize to amaze.

Are vaccinations mandatory? No one should be arrested for refusing a vaccine. As silly as I/we think the choice is, they have rights.

Sunny_bobo: Instead of Babangida Aliyu concerning himself with issues like these, he is busy fighting GEJ over 2015.

That Aliyu of a guy is just an ordinary gunmouth. He makes more talks than works and decieve his people with this "Chief Servant" rubbish.
This is an indictment on the whole of northern elites. All these politicians whose wives deliver of their babies abroad dont dear refuse immunization or vaccination whether it's made to "depopulate" or "reforestate".

Hmmmmm...dy dnt understand d usefulness til dy c d consequence...pity dose children..pray dy dont bcum disable

Have you tried to find out the reason why they are rejecting the Polio vaccines .
You are saying this because youhave your body complete and intact...?
Why are they endangering the lives of these innocent children to Pilo ? They should be jailed
Polio is very deadly and abounds in the north. Little wonder we have lots of disabled children over there.
Polio vaccination as we were told helps in eradicating these disabilities caused by Polio virus.

Ridiculous... You don't force anyone to receive vaccinations for their wards... It's a violation of their human right! You can argue the benefits of vaccination that it provides herd immunity , yet there are cases of the vaccine resulting in polio. If the Government is unable to convince them, then leave them alone! Na by force?

its not deadly sista, its a morbidity problm not a mortality problm!

Really? When the kids grow up and get infected with poliomyelitis, who's duty is it to take care of them? The same Government whom they refused to take vaccines from?
