LAHORE: Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif, on Sunday, said that ex-Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s services for the country are unforgettable, adding that under his leadership the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) had set an example of public service.

On Saturday, the ousted premier named his younger brother Shehbaz Sharif as his successor and nominated ex-oil minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi as an interim premier.

“I support Shahbaz Sharif after me but it will take some time to contest elections, so for the time being, I nominate Shahid Khaqan Abbasi,” Sharif said in a televised speech to his party.

“The nomination of Shehbaz Sharif as the next prime minister won’t bring political stability, it will strengthen the culture of dynastic politics,” a renowned political analyst said. How can they not find one single individual in the whole party for the post of prime minister,” he said.

Earlier Saturday the Election Commission of Pakistan confirmed fresh elections would be held in Nawaz Sharif’s former constituency, in the family’s power base of Punjab province, in a process which could take up to 45 days.

  1. SS should now stop praising a person who has been disqualified by SC. Truth and justice has prevailed. An advice to Sharif family to leave the political arena and let others serve this nation.

  2. Yes unforgettable indeed!

    When Pakistan will not be able to CPEC high rates of interest then China will grab assists like they have done in Sri Lanka with 99 year leases…better to live free and poor than gulami to Chinese!
