The President, Lagos Archdiocese Catholic Men Organisation (LACMON) Barrister Vincent Otiono, has charged members to strive to be vaccinated against Covid-19.
Speaking during the monthly General Meeting of the Catholic Church of the Resurrection, Magodo on Sunday, Otiono stressed the importance of vaccines in the fight against the scourge.
“We must not listen to what people are saying. Covid-19 is real. Go and take the vaccine shot. Don’t allow anybody to deceive you. Your life is at risk if you fail to get the vaccine.”
The president urged all CMO members in Lagos Archdiocese to make sure they get the two doses of the vaccine to fortify themselves against the deadly Delta variant of the virus.
“The only way to beat Covid-19 and prevent harm to your body and others is to take the vaccine.”
The president who has been on this campaign for long, continues to advocate for the need for Catholic men to listen to the advice of COVID-19 experts and not that of charlatans who regularly post messages on social media to discourage people from taking the vaccine.
“Don’t wait till it is too late. You may lose your life if you are infected with the deadly virus.
Maintain all COVID 19 protocols and stay safe”, he advised.
