Referring to Shehbaz Sharif, Wazir said that although the PML-N president and Leader of the Opposition had claimed that he came back to Pakistan to help people fight the coronavirus, "he has not visited a single spot where corona efforts are being made.

"[Shehbaz] only keeps talking about it on his laptop from a room. We will fight corona, we will run the country and the economy and the processes of accountability will also happen," he added.
