KARACHI: Sindh Governor Imran Ismail on Monday announced that he will resign from his post as soon as Shehbaz Sharif becomes PM, ARY News reported.
Imran Ismail, a long-time PTI loyalist, announced his decision in a video message soon after former PM Imran Khan and all the party MNAs also announced resignations from National Assembly and boycotted the election of new PM.
Imran Ismail was of the view that he cannot work under Shehbaz Sharif, a corrupt politician, and has written his resignation which will soon be sent to President of Pakistan Arif Alvi.
It is pertinent to note here that Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Shah Farman also resigned from his position, soon after PTI chief and former PM Imran Khan announced to resign from National Assembly along with all his party MNAs.
The NA session with the election of prime minister on the agenda was also boycotted by PTI as the party’s MNAs announced resignations en-masse.
PTI Chief Imran Khan was ousted as PM on April 10 in a midnight vote of confidence which he lost. All the party members boycotted the vote except for Ali Muhammad Khan.
Today, a party session chaired by former PM Imran Khan decided to resign from National Assembly which was about to elect former opposition leader and PML-N President Mian Shehbaz Sharif as CM.
