The African Democratic Congress (ADC) Sunday asked the Minister of Health, Dr. Osagie Ehanire, to apologize to Nigerians for \u201cmisinforming\u201d them on the mission of the 15-member Chinese medical team which arrived in the country last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ADC National Publicity Secretary, Yemi Kolapo, who made the call in a statement in Lagos, said the party was at the forefront of calls for support for the Federal Government<\/a> because of its conviction that politicising the COVID-19 pandemic would neither benefit citizens nor the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The minister had informed Nigerians that the Chinese medical personnel are not guests of the federal government but that of Chinese Civil Engineering and Construction Company (CCECC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kolapo said: \u201cEhanire has failed to address the real issues raised by concerned Nigerians on the whereabouts of a 15-member Chinese medical team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe minister\u2019s explanation that the 15 Chinese<\/a> men were guests of the Chinese Civil Engineering Construction Company (CCECC) and not of the Nigerian government could not close the \u2018untidy\u2019 case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn a matter that had been followed by the entire world, a simple apology will reassure Nigerians that we are not being taken for fools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNot apologising for this needless messy situation would send a wrong signal to the world on the manner of governance in Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
