PTI - Imran Khan's Political Desk

Yup. That's sums it up: Why would IK need a thoroughly discredited Musharraf? Especially now when IK's star is rising? What does Musharraf offer in return? Musharraf's best chance was soft-coup where the military would engineer yet another 'democratic' setup but that's not happening.
It is best Musharraf stays out of Pakistan--for his own PHYSICAL SAFETY.
BTW, I don't call Musharraf a 'traitor' or even financially corrupt. Far, far from it. But Musharraf was a dictator who ran Pakistan like a bank: Do 'clean business' and all will be fine. He, like all previous dictators, forgot that running a county is not like running a bank. To run a country you need POLITICS. You need to be nuanced. You need to accommodate much of conflicting push and pulls to formulate complex policies.
If only it required 'clean hands' to run a complex country like Pakistan then Abdul Sattar Edhi would have been the best.

Anyway, Mr. Musharraf: Please don't ever go back to Pakistan. You have not even a 5% chance to be the next leader and probably over 90% chance of either being killed or jailed within your first 30 days inside Pakistan.

i hope he gets killed, he should go back to his place of birth Delhi, only politicians should be elected who are born and bred pakistanis.

Pti once in power should try and hang him for treason and crimes against civilians.

Yaa..more credible and competent should be the answer now as he got the job already no matter what PTI follower think about it anywas…so its better to toe the party line here….but the one would ask what are the charges against him in the first place, where he shows incompetence and lacks credibilty in all those previous years?? Suddenly the Axe falls and the person is history.....than fundamental question is does a person who already serves in various govts., be more loyal to PTI and its ideals compares to the old folk who builds it from scratch??

Parties needs this loyalty in crunching times where huge ones like PPP, PMLN divided in pieces by one way or another in seconds.

Matches could be wined by priced players but not the tournaments…!!

Party loyality is not in question.

In-experience; not incompetence, is the problem.

No axe has fallen and the guy is not history. He may be given a more junior position, groomed for provincial rather than national role and then take over in few years with lot more to deliver.

It must be remembered that PTI is not the party it was until only 6 months ago. Then no one gave a damn about PTI, now everyone does. So, in the current scenario, experience/confidence/knowledge/historical background much more important.

A slight slip of tongue can damage the party a lot, especially in the heat of election times.

You may remember Rafique Bajwa, the advocate from Lahore in the 70s. Also, remember Air-Marshall Asgahr Khan.

There is no charge against Cheema.

[Leader]

Omar Cheema is with PTI for last 15 years, he has been on many posts within PTI, a change was required, as Cheema sahib was not performing well, as far as the tv talk shows were concern.
however M.S. Khattak was no way deserving this post. It should have been given to some loyalist.

i can bet like now PTI is making compromises on its principles, it will finish PTI and imran will escape to london

he was for 15 years, so y u didnt replace him before these guys are the only who have increased party like PTI's popularity through their hard work, and now making compromises on genuine people for few votes???

its a very silly think to replace the old admins with the very fresh arrivals, this is very cruel to the genuine PTIs

after years of being loyal n hard work, it was his moment to get the fruits of hard work n u replace with lotas

read carefully, before laughing.

yes I do agree that switch of responsibility should have been with someone who was in party for years.

But new faces are to be adjusted, if the party wants to contest election on National scale.

[Fracker]

I can't forget Musharaf for his NRO decision. I can't forget anyone who let this so much corrupt person to lead this nation just for the sack of his political survivors, be it PML-Q, MQM, Musharaf, JUI-F or even PML-N

[kas786]

PTI please don't do it.

Maleeha all set to join Imran’s tsunami
By: Syed Danish Hussain | Published: December 15, 2011
ISLAMABAD - In a development that exposes the establishment’s full backing and ‘blessings’ for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, former Ambassador to the US Dr Maleeha Lodhi is all set to join PTI after dozens of former spymasters and ex-Generals have already joined the party.
PTI sources privy to the developments in this regard confirmed the same to The Nation, however, did not disclose the exact date of her joining the party.
A PTI leader wishing not to be named said that PTI Chairman Imran Khan had contacted Maleeha few days ago and invited her to party’s fold.
‘Dr Maleeha was also assured of some high profile place if the party came to power after next general elections’, he added.
‘Maleeha Lodhi has given her consent of joining the party of Imran Khan, and it will be announced in a news conference in upcoming days’, he added.
Dr Maleeha Lodhi is well known to be very close to whatever military leadership is in power. She was immediately appointed as Ambassador to US when former military dictator Pervez Musharraf tool power in 1999.
For her ‘public service’ she was awarded Presidential award, Hilal-e-Imtiaz, in 2002.
She has also served as the High Commissioner of Pakistan to UK. She became the Pakistani Ambassador to the United States, under two different Presidents from 1994-1997 and then during 1999-2002 - in the process becoming Pakistan’s longest ever serving Ambassador to the US - before relinquishing her post on the completion of her second tour of duty. At the time of military coup in 1999, she was blamed by close aides of Nawaz Sharif that she with the consent of military establishment played her role in bringing down the then Nawaz government.
