A former lawmaker representing the Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani has asked herbalists to find Nigeria a coronavirus cure.

Taking to Twitter, the ex-Senator urged the herbalists to not rely on modern medicine but look for a solution from herbs.

"Our Herbalists should delve into research on finding a vaccine for #COVID19 rather than so much concentration on production and marketing of ‘manpower’ drugs," Sani wrote.
