Governor Ben Ayade of Cross River State in Nigeria has said authoritatively that the solution to the covid 19 pandemic lies in the hands of Africans themselves. He believes the vaccine for the virus could be got from the antibodies of those who had recovered from the virus.


His opinion has stirred controversy. Critics perceive the approach of this environmental microbiologist turned politician as outlandish and a mere circus show that is not yielding much impact especially in the hinterland where people are carrying on as if there is no COVID-19 pandemic.
