Parents and caregivers have been charged to ensure they make their children available for vaccination as Kaduna State commences another round of polio immunization campaign.
The exercise is scheduled for January 10 to 13, 2022 and would be conducted through House-to-House visits, on the streets and markets, motor parks among others.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by the State Coordinator, Journalists Initiative on Immunization Against Polio (JAP) Kaduna State Chapter Lawal A. Dogara.
JAP advised that vaccination would enable the children grow healthier as such parents should try and ensure they allow the vaccinators to attend to their wards.
JAP explained that all adequate arrangement had been made for the smooth conduct of the exercise by the State Government, Development partners and other stakeholders.
JAP commended the Traditional Rulers and Religion Leaders for their effort and urged them to put in more efforts for the success of the exercise.

JAP then appealed to the ad-hoc staff engaged for the conduct of Polio immunization to ensure all eligible children are reached for the progress of the exercise.
