He praised the government for applying the same strategy it used for Polio in the state, which culminated into total eradication of the disease in the country.

”Sometime in the past, the Kano state was number 34 in COVID-19 vaccination exercise. But because of your commitment, Your Excellency, Kano is now number four in the exercise, which is a tremendous achievement indeed.”

Responding, Ganduje appreciated the WHO and other development partners for strengthening institutions and human resource development in the state and the country in general.
