President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the establishment of at least one oxygen plant in each of the 36 states of the federation.

The Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Boss Mustapha, made this known during a briefing on Tuesday in Abuja.

The President also approved the rehabilitation of five oxygen plants across tertiary health institutions within the country.

“Approval has been given to rehabilitate five oxygen plants across various tertiary health institutions in Abuja,” the PTF Chairman said.

“The President has also approved that at least one oxygen plant should be established in each state of the federation immediately. The National Coordinator will elaborate on this during this briefing.”

“The PTF is progressing on the issue of accessing vaccines for Nigerians. Additional information will be provided to Nigerians on accelerated vaccines introduction and deployment plan.

“What is currently confronting us is a critical phase of infections globally. We are constantly reviewing our strategy to emerging situations especially in risk communication, vaccine hesitancy, fake news/disinformation.”

This comes as CACOVID commences the distribution of 100 oxygen cylinders per day to Critical Care centres, till March-end.
