The Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire said during the Presidential Task Force daily briefing on Monday, May 11 that the plant used in Madagascar to prepare herbal drug for Coronavirus also grows in Nigeria.

“We will also give it to research community here with us to examine and see what they can do with it,” he added.
