Vaccine Mandate Has Come To Stay - APC Replies NLC

A leading support group of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC Mandate Defenders has reacted to the statement credited to the President of the Nigerian Labour Congress, Comrade Ayuba Wabba on the enforcement of vaccine mandate policy in Nigeria starting from December 1st.

In a statement released to newsmen in Abuja by the National Publicity Secretary of the group, Mr. Ifeanyi Emeka, the group said it has deemed it necessary to explain to Nigerians that contrary to what some opinion leaders are saying, the APC controlled Federal Government said “With effect from 1st December, 2021, Federal Government employees shall be required to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or present a negative COVID-19 PCR test result done within 72 hours, to gain access to their offices in all locations within Nigeria and our Missions.”

What the government said is what is called Vaccine Mandate. It means that government does not physically force you to get vaccinated, but if you don’t get vaccinated or show prove that you are healthy by presenting a negative COVID-19 PCR test result done within 72 hours to continue with your work, then government will have to stop you from entering it's building or gaining access to it's facility so that you don't spread the disease in government establishments.

Government is not alone in this, even financial institutions have directed their workers to go for vaccination or conduct COVID-19 tests on a bi-weekly basis at personal cost.

The circular for banks read ''If you are not taking the vaccine, then you’ll have to show your test result every two weeks."

The group said, it sees nothing wrong with the government decision as the intention is to prevent further spread of the virus in Nigeria.

Even in the United States, President Biden in July this year signed an Executive Order to require all federal executive branch workers to receive the vaccine or have a COVID-19 test weekly. President Biden also signed an Executive Order that requires this mandate for employees of contractors that do business with the federal government.

Vaccine Mandate is in Nigeria's best national interest which should not be a subject of debate in the media.

Therefore, instead of whipping up sentiments by hiring opinion leaders and interest groups to challenge the new policy, workers who can not obey the new guidelines should do the needful because Nigeria cannot be a pariah state because of few who are aversed to change.

The corporate existence of Nigeria is what Mr. President swore an oath to defend and we will not leave any stone unturned in helping him to achieve this objective.

Mr. Ifeanyi Emeka,
National Publicity Secretary,
APC Mandate Defenders

You're very stupid. Do you know what is inside the so-called 'vaccine'?

Nobody has any right to force another to inject any substance into their body.

The E-naira is an IMF policy too. With our eyes wide open, our leaders are selling us out.

What is even scarier is not knowing whether we the masses would benefit or suffer from these external policies

They must be very stupid.

Do they think we are practicing Sharia law in Nigeria?
So why enforcing it on people?


That's abuse of human right.
What kind of nonsense is this?

I knew from the moment, the mannequin and State governors started televising themselves taking the vaccine, that they had plans to force it on Nigerians.
The braind£ad simpletons in the presidency have as usual, collected money from New world order-crazed individuals to make the vaccine mandatory.

Dead shot

Has any woman gotten pregnant after taking this Vaccine?

Because it seems women are having serious menstrual problems after taking this Vaccine.
I just pity southern women for this.

Government is the people for the people and by the people and does not belong to any bloody individual....!!

It is what the people want that would and should prevail and the people say No to forced vaccine so what's the fuse there of not granting entrance to facilities that belong to the people in the first place?

You people should learn to know your rights....!! People like you is one of the many reasons Nigeria is where she is today...!!
