In Jan 2018, he had been elected as the CM for the first time after former chief minister Nawab Sanaullah Zehri resigned from the office.

After the resignation of former chief minister Jam Kamal Khan, Bizenjo, an elected member of the provincial legislature from Awaran, had also stepped down as the speaker of the assembly to contest the election for the slot.
