It is tragic to hear about the loss of nine female polio vaccinators at a health centre in Kano in northern Nigeria. Unfortunately, the people continue to hold misplaced notion about polio vaccination causing infertility, whereas many of the parents of polio-afflicted children have realised their folly of not saving their children from this crippling disease.
We pray for peace of the departed soul and hope that better sense will prevail, and people of Nigeria would come forward to protect the lives of their children.
