The Federal Government has disclosed of its decision to bar workers from accessing their offices as from December 1 if they are unable to show proof of their vaccination against the COVID-19 pandemic or a Polymerase Chain Reaction PCR test done within 72 hours.

Chairman of the Presidential Steering Committee PSC on COVID-19 and Secretary to the Government of the Federation SGF, Mr Boss Mustapha announced this at Wednesday’s briefing of the committee.

“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. An appropriate service wide advisory/circular will be issued to guide the process”, he stated.

He said statistics generated over the last four weeks on testing have shown that the trend of infection is going down in some states while in others, the trajectory is upward.

“The combined total for testing by PCR and RDT now stands at about 3.141, 795 million persons.

“The Aviation authorities in collaboration with the diplomatic sector have made reasonable progress in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Discussions are still on-going with the UAE Authorities to resolve the impasse”, he said.

Mustapha recalled that over several months, four countries were placed on high level restriction for travelers from such countries, adding that the PSC has after a review of the developments in these countries, decided to remove South Africa, Turkey, and Brazil from the restricted list.

“As you are aware, the UK has eased restrictions on fully vaccinated travelers from Nigeria to the UK with effect from 11th October. Nigeria welcomes this development and assures that the PSC shall continue to review Nigeria’s protocols based on global developments, science and national experience. A revised protocol will be issued in the next 24 hours”, he said.

Congratulations to Buhari, his people and their evil party! Making vaccination compulsory? Why not make quick development compulsory? Why not initial a policy that will stop excess borrowing compulsory? The political mistake of 2015 was a terrible one.

Oh boy, I thought this forced vaccine mandate will never be implemented in naija.

Haba

I think Nigeria has no option but to comply with the dictates of the global system governing the world.

Make Cattle Ranching Compulsory

Nonsense policy!

It won't work!!

The numbers are down all round. Glory be to God. Hallelujah!!!

Lol

Na Nigerian civil servants you want threaten with evidence? I laugh...

They will forge every evidence you require and not a single one of them would take the vaccine if they don't want to.

Even Mr. President can't be trusted to have taken the same vaccine.

This is what 1.4 billion dollars from the Satanist globalist was used to buy

Even the State of Texas has just banned any vaccine mandate in the state and you are saying we must comply with the dictates of globalist Satanist

That's the funniest statement I have heard in a long time. How credible is this news?
