President Muhammadu Buhari Monday asked Nigerians to disregard the allegation that the COVID-19 pandemic is a foreign creation to depopulate Africa and boost the financial interests of western pharmaceutical companies through vaccine production.

He said this in a get-well message sent to his South African counterpart, Cyril Ramaphosa, who tested positive for COVID-19.

Buhari, in a statement issued by his media aide, Garba Shehu, warned that “lack of attention to medical advice and apathy are damaging to the government’s efforts to contain the spread of this deadly viral disease.”

He advised Nigerians to come out fully and get vaccinated.

The president, in his message released to Ramaphosa, said: “My heart and prayers are with Mr Ramaphosa of South Africa at this difficult moment of health challenge, and I pray for his speedy and full recovery.

“Mr Ramaphosa is a friend of Nigeria and an important partner in our joint continental efforts to tackle Africa’s social, economic and political difficulties.

“The coronavirus pandemic is a reality and no respecter of persons.”
