The Senator representing Taraba Central in the National Assembly, Yusuf Abubakar Yusuf, has objected to the federal government’s invitation of a Chinese medical team to help Nigeria in its coronavirus response.
Dr Osagie Ehanire, Minister of Health, has said that the 18-member team of Chinese experts will be arriving soon with “globally scarce supplies” in the fight against coronavirus.
Senator Yusuf, during an interview with journalists on Monday in Abuja, said the time was not ripe to allow the Chinese doctors to come in.
