Stressing that the exercise only covers one-29 years old people, Bello noted that the immunisation cleared the concern for the period of 10years.
Explaining further, he said the immunisation exercise would commence simultaneously in the 21 local government areas of the state, adding that the vaccines were given to the people freely.
