At a recent meeting of Somali government officials in the presence of national leaders, the decision was made to announce the ban on qat and all flights from Kenya.
The data say that until it is confirmed that qat can cause Coronavirus, as the hands are not packaged in the packaging, all khat use is stopped.
It is also planned to suspend all imports from Kenya and flights to that country and Somalia.
Lawmaker Ali Jowhar, chairman of the House Committee on Social Affairs said yesterday that they would hold a conference and called on the Somali government to ban qat.
The MP also said that a meeting has been agreed to end the matter and the decision will be announced later tomorrow.
Many individuals have appealed to the Somali government to ban qat, which is a serious threat to Somalia, as well as the cause of the global epidemic of Coronavirus as it is uncertain whether it can transmit it.
Kenya announced that two more people were diagnosed with Coronavirus two days after the first case was announced.
The federal government of Somalia recently banned people from four of the countries that are worst affected by the spread of Coronavirus.
A statement from the Somali Civil Aviation and Climate Prediction Agency, dated March 10th, barred entry to Somalia from China, Italy, South Korea and Iran.
