The minister of science and Technology OGBONNAYA ONU who made the claims said a committee from the Nigeria Academy of Science has been constituted to verify the claims of four scientists who say they have found the cure for Coronavirus and Lassa fever.
The minister insisted that there are strong indications that Nigeria is about to record a major breakthrough for the cure of the ravaging diseases.
Doctor ONU said the government is offering thirty-six million naira as an incentive to Nigerian scientists to enable them research into the cure for the virus.
A Nigerian scientist, Professor MAURICE IWU had earlier claimed that he has the cure to Covid-19.
Similarly, three other scientists have also joined IWU to take the minister’s challenge as they submit their claims for verification at the Nigerian Academy of Science.
