RAJANPUR – Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday said disgruntled Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Chaudhry Nisar was former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s ex and not his.
“Nisar was Mian Sahab’s ex and my fling – but not at the same time,” the PML-N president said while speaking to media after an inaugural ceremony at District Headquarters Hospital in Rajanpur.
“I am talking about 1988,” he clarified.
Further speaking about his and Nisar’s relationship back in the day, Shehbaz said, “He used to constantly complain about me to Mian Sb when they were together.”
“If I have ever been scolded by Mian Sb, it is because of Nisar,” he added.
The Punjab chief minister further said, “Our relationship was bitter for some time, probably because of the lack of commitment in it and also because my brother was more seriously involved. Then eventually we became friends.”
Stating that Nisar is ‘immature’, Shehbaz shared, “He needs to be dealt with like a child and we keep trying to pacify him and resolve any issues.”
When asked if he will succeed in convincing Nisar to put his differences aside this time around, the Punjab chief minister answered, “only if Mian sb starts returning his calls.”
