White Lies

Imran Khan’s spiritual guide these days is a lady who is a devotee of the shrine at Pakpattan. Khan is a superstitious man and she has his ear, for better or worse.

Now it appears that she has told him that to become prime minister he has to get married first. That it is a condition that he absolutely must fulfil. So the search is on these days for a suitable girl. This time round, Khan is only going to be given a choice amongst the candidates that his family picks for him, nothing more than that.

As they say, third time’s a charm….

 

 


 

 

 

The prime minister’s in a bit of a dilemma, of course. If he were to be frank about his ill-health, the public and opposition would say that he is unfit to rule the country. If he were to lie a bit and have his daughter’s media team release some strategic photos of him going about town, the same sections will say that he has never had surgery to begin with and that this was all just an attempt to gather sympathy.

The premier, it is reported, has been advised by his doctors to take some rest for ten days after he lands in the country. And to completely alter his diet and get some exercise. The first bit of advice, he will absolutely ace, but it is the last two that he isn’t going to find easy.
