A statement by the Chief of Staff to Governor Dapo Abiodun, Kunle Somorin, said the vaccination for journalists will start on Friday, March 19.<\/p>\n

Somorin noted that Gov Abiodun had decided to treat journalists specially because their profession exposes them so much to the deadly virus.<\/p>\n

He likened pressmen to health workers and security agents, who he said were always on the road when other people stay at home, especially during lockdown.<\/p>\n

However, it was disclosed that only journalists who have registered for the vaccine online would be attended to by health workers, from 10am to 5pm on Friday at Iwe-Iroyin.<\/p>\n

Somorin added that a print out of the online registration details would be required for record purposes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
