Over 60 million doses of various vaccines are expected to arrive later this week as Nigeria starts a mass COVID-19 vaccination campaign.

The secretary to the government of the federation, Boss Mustapha, said the government aims at inoculating half of its targeted population by the end of January 2022.

He also said the government is making efforts to secure booster shots “so as to build a healthy level of antibodies.”

The plan will see vaccine sites set up at private health facilities, universities, colleges, stadiums, motor parks and shopping malls among other venues.

He said Nigeria has a goal to vaccinate 111 million people.

Faisal Shuaib, executive director of the National Primary Health Care Development Agency, said Nigeria received about 5 million AstraZeneca shots last month from the COVAX global-sharing facility, both purchases and donations.
