Acting Executive Secretary Primary Healthcare Board, Dr. Iwot Ndeaeyo Akpan, led the FCT healthcare team to the home of the nonagenarian for the administration of the jab.
Clark, addressing newsmen after being vaccinated, appealed to Nigerians to volunteer themselves for the jab.
The Ijaw leader urged Nigerians to take the issue of safety very seriously.
In his remarks, Dr. Akpan said there has never been any case of side effect to warrant stoppage of the administration of COVID-19 vaccines in Nigeria.
