KARACHI/QUETTA: Dr. Ameer Mohammad Khan Jogezai refuted on Sunday night the claims that he had excused himself from taking up the post of the governor of Balochistan.

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) nominee for the post of Balochistan governorship told the media that his remarks had been “portrayed in an incorrect manner”.
He clarified that he did not excuse himself from the post but he had said that he would not take oath as governor until he was given the required clearance.
Mentioning that the government offices will reopen in the coming week after the Eid-ul-Azha holidays, Jogezai stated that he would “take oath after the NAB (National Accountability Bureau) issues the certificate next week”.
