The provincial minister shared a video message on Twitter, saying he had gotten his test done a day earlier which turned out to be positive.
The minister further clarified that he cannot feel the symptoms being told regarding the virus and he feels healthy. Ghani said that he has decided to quarantine himself at his house for 14 days. "I am going in complete isolation," he remarked. "I assure people that I will continue to fulfill all my responsibilities."
