The House of Representatives, on Tuesday, expressed grave displeasure over the lackadaisical attitude of the Federal Government towards prompt payment of salaries of front-line medical and health workers during the ravaging scourge of coronavirus (COVID-19) across the country.
The lawmakers expressed the concerns during the debate on a motion, the “Urgent need to investigate the status of Nigerian medical and pharmaceutical research efforts in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic”, sponsored by the Deputy Minority Leader, Hon Toby Okechukwu.
In leading the debate, Hon Okechukwu noted that with over 6,000 confirmed cases of the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria, he is worried that despite the efforts of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Bank to cushion the health and economic hazards worldwide, no real local treatment has been approved by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) for Nigerians.
