Sohail Afridi blames Sindh govt for hurdles to Karachi visit

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi has accused the Sindh government of creating hurdles during his journey to Karachi and urged Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to look into the situation.

Speaking to party workers at the Tando Jam toll plaza in Sindh, Afridi said a historic march would take place on September 27.

He thanked the workers for supporting him and said he would reach Karachi despite the obstacles along the way.

Addressing Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, the KP chief minister said, “You should accept that your government is behind what is happening to me here. If that is not the case, then tell us who is responsible.”

Afridi said Sindh had a long tradition of welcoming guests and that the treatment he was receiving did not reflect the province’s traditions.

He claimed that the authorities did not want him to reach Karachi but vowed to continue his journey.

“If I cannot reach Karachi today, I will reach there tomorrow,” Afridi said. “I promise that I will not leave Sindh without reaching Karachi.”
