Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister (CM) Sohail Afridi, accompanied by senior Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders, on Monday once again made an unexpected visit to Mazar-e-Quaid in Karachi. KP CM Afridi offered prayers at the mausoleum, laid a floral wreath and recited Fateha.PTI Secretary General Salman Akram Raja, Sindh President Haleem Adil Sheikh, Umar Dar, Rehana Dar, Naeem Haider Panjotha, Shafi Jan, Shaukat Basra and several other leaders were present alongside the KP Chief Minister.
It is pertinent to mention that last night, Chief Minister Afridi had also visited Bagh-e-Jinnah in Karachi, where he addressed a large public gathering and sharply criticised the Punjab and Sindh governments for what he described as their mistreatment of PTI workers.CM KP Afridi also announced that the next phase of the political movement would now shift towards Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), pledging to carry former prime minister and PTI founder Imran Khan’s message across the country through a full-scale street mobilisation.
Expressing gratitude to the people of Sindh, particularly Karachi, Afridi said the strong turnout at the Mazar-e-Quaid demonstrated that the nation stood firmly with Imran Khan.“Those who believed Imran Khan’s politics had ended should come and witness it today,” he said, adding that the public was always ready to respond whenever Imran Khan issued a call. Afridi praised Karachi’s citizens for holding a successful rally despite limited facilities, accusing the Sindh government of placing hurdles which, he said, were ultimately removed by the people themselves.
