Former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi claimed that PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz is not a candidate for the slot of prime minister from the PML-N. He said she is not eligible to contest the election owing to corruption cases against her. He asserted that the PML-N’s candidate for the prime minister’s slot will be party president Shehbaz Sharif.
However, former Sindh governor and senior PML-N leader Muhammad Zubair contradicted Shahid Khan Abbasi’s assertion. He said that the corruption cases against Maryam Nawaz are weak. He also noted that Shehbaz Sharif will lead the party campaign as president.
Elections of local governments in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa this month and in Punjab in the next few months are a manifestation of the confidence of the PTI government, he remarked, adding that the PPP and PML-N could not field enough candidates in KP and the same situation would emerge in Punjab as well. He opined that only one or two television channels are trying to keep their practically dead politics alive.
