Author: Web Desk

Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan’s ex-wife, Jemima Goldsmith, congratulated him on Thursday as the party embraced victory in general elections 2018.

In her Tweet, Jemima stated that after 22 years of humiliations, hurdles, and sacrifices, my sons’ father is Pakistan’s next PM.

She further highlighted the lesson from Imran’s struggle, “It’s an incredible lesson in tenacity, belief & refusal to accept defeat.”

Jemima then concluded by saying, “The challenge now is to remember why he entered politics in the first place. Congratulations Imran Khan.”

In another Tweet, the ex-wife recalled 1997 elections and stated, “I remember IK’s 1st election in 1997- untested, idealistic & politically naive. I waited up for the call in LHR with 3 mo old Sulaiman, who I had lugged around the country.”

She added, “Eventually, he called. “It’s a clean sweep” & after my gasp, “… the other way.” He roared with laughter.”

Yesterday, as Pakistan observed its polls day, Jemima wished luck to Pakistan. Her Tweet read, “Happy Election Day Pakistan, you maddening, beautiful, crazy, beloved old friend. Here’s hoping the people who count your votes, let your vote count. And you get the leader you believe in. Pakistan Zindabad!”
