3 mins read

Ashanti was in Nairobi for a few days ago and loved it so much and even promise to come back when the pandemic is over or at least contained.

The American multiple-award-winning singer and songwriter took to social media to talk about being more than ready and willing to have the Verzuz battle with Keysha Cole at the comfort of her home after she contracted COVID-19.

A few days ago, Ashanti took to social media to announce that she contracted COVID-19 and was given a directive to quarantine for 14 days.

“Hey, y’all I can’t believe I’m saying this but I tested positive for COVID-19. I’m ok and not in any pain. I’m actually down to do the verzuz from my house…we’re trying to figure it out!!!” Ashanti shared on social media.

Ashanti who checked in at Hemingways Hotel in Karen and later on visited Giraffe Manor and Nairobi National Park has vehemently denied contracting the COVID-19 disease from traveling in Nairobi.

“To be very, very, very clear, yes, I’ve been traveling, yes I went to Nairobi, I had an amazing time. No, I did not get COVID from traveling, no I did not get COVID from being in Africa.” Ashanti made it clear in the video she shared online.

“Everyone that I went on a trip with has tested negative. They went from country to country, they went to Uganda so they have to continue to get tested. No one tested positive, I did not get it from traveling,” she continued.

The ‘Foolish’ hitmaker went on further to explain how she got the virus from a family member she hugged at the comfort of her house who turned out to be positive.

“I actually got it from a family member when I came home. I came home and hugged a family member who ended up being positive.” Ashanti explained. “I didn’t know he was positive, he didn’t know he was positive so when he went to get tested, I was like, oh! f*ck”
